Damaraland and desert elephants

Uh, another hot day in Damaraland, Namibia and a lot of driving yesterday. From Uis to Twyfelfontein. On the way I visited EHRA campsite which is run by Johannes from Swakopmund and his girlfriend Rachel. Unfortunally none of them was there. I met Johannes in October 2011 in Tanzania and we went sailing in Mozambique. 

Just before Twyfelfontein at Aba Huab camping site I bumped into a singing competition, sponsored by Standard bank. Local groups were singing and dancing, it was very nice and big fun.

Today I drove to see few thousand years old bushmen paintings in Twyfelfontain. After that I drove to Palmwag to pour some gasoline into my thirsty bike and checked also lodge over there. After that I drove to Khowarib, all on gravel roads. All together around 250 kms today.

I am camping at community campsite in Khowarib tonight. No desert elephants spotted by now but many springbok running paralel with me while driving. It is very windy here at the camping during the night.
