We wake up to a stunning sunrise over the open grasslands, complete with animals slowly making there way to the waterhole for a drink. We pack up the camp which takes about 30 minutes including dishes, very happy with that speed as that is not rushing.

With the camp care taker waiting for us to leave we pull out and work our way along the track which slowly gets worse and worse. Deeper and deeper sand. Until we catch a break at a water hole, where we see a stuck animal. Nature is cruel sometimes. The animal struggles for a bit then accepts fate as the vultures slowly moved closer and closer waiting for their meal. Not what you want to see but it is what it is.
The animals last days 
But we did see this happy little guy
Moving on we stop at a different location for lunch, chicken sandwiches and savannah. The rangers are also out and about patrolling the area. The tourist buses start showing up on the radar now as we are almost at the exit, along with large groups of elephants. At the gate we check out and motor another 30kms to a baobab tree to camp around.

Parked up at camp we get a small fire going and enjoy dinner. I spend the next hour cutting Asareh’s hair to remove the extensions. Fine in town.. camping and dust they are no good. I find a trap door spider and we enjoy a nice warm sleep, first night we actually can open all the windows in the tent.
