Camp at Mile 108



Waiting for Lynn, Adrian, Ellen and Fox to arrive - who were tussling with the authorities in Windhoek to get a replacement passport for Lynn after her was stolen.

Our adventures in Africa

Ellepfantiks is a combination of the first letters of our names (and a bit of creative license), Lindsay, Eric, Pru, Keith, Lynn, Adrian, Fox and Ellen. This blog documents our travels across Namibia and Botswana in our trusty 4WD camper vehicles. We were there during August and September 2013, for nearly 5 weeks.
This blog is not in time order (mainly because we are blog newbies, and part of the adventure was working out how to blog). We also had slow internet when we were travelling so the photos were added after we returned home.
Earlier in the blog are the entries that we wrote en route, and give authentic accounts of this amazing time of our lives.
