Finally on our way. Yesterday we left at 16:00 for London and from there to Johannesburg where we arrived today at 07:00. Flight was great; I slept very good. Lisa said she did not sleep that well although I doubt that. We had great meals.<\/span><\/p>\n

On arrival we had to look for our driver who brought us to Bushlore, the seller of our car. We took over a rental, 3 years old, with 150,000 km.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bushlore gave us a good explanation of the cars particulars. I hope I can remember. After that I needed to pay the car which was quite difficult.<\/span><\/p>\n

Well, then we drove away. My goodness, it is a truck. 0-100 in 2 minutes or so.<\/span><\/p>\n

Money was the next problem. I recently received a new ATM and forgot to activate the \u2018world withdrawal\u2019. Luckily there is internet.<\/span><\/p>\n

We drove 300 km and arrived in Virginia, near Welkom. We\u2019ve just eaten and I took a beer after a good shower. We are camping near a river and are being eaten alive by the mosquito\u2019s. Also we have a shortage of lights so we will go to bed early.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tomorrow we will drive via Bloemfontein and Beaufort Wes to Dysselsdorp. It is another 845 km so we may arrive only on Friday<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Yesterday the website could not be updated. All my data was used; lessons learned. A prepaid cellphone works fine here but one has to procure data or airtime after the upload of the coucher. If you do not do this, very expensive. Now I have 3 GB for ZAR 220. One can buy these vouchers anywhere.<\/span><\/p>\n

This morning (Thursday) we left very early because we woke up at 6 am. We also went to bed early and where woken up by all kinds of birds. Rob, you would have loved this! <\/span><\/p>\n

We drove away at 8 am although Lisa was lost at first (yes, pick me up at the entrance….). We quickly arrived at Bloemfontein where the landscape changed to the typical Karoo \u201ckoppietjes\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

The car, well what shall I say, is really a truck and that\u2019s how I drive it now. Keep it between 90 and 100 km\/h with a fuel consumption of 1 liter per 7 or 8 km. Diesel only costs 1 euro here which makes South Africa the most expensive country here. We had lots of wind today<\/span><\/p>\n

We decided very soon that 845 km was too much for one day and as such we looked for a place to stay which we found in Beaufort West. Tomorrow another 150 m to Dysselsdorp. The camping is clean but not so beautiful as it is near a city with trains passing by<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
