Kaspaas does Namibia.
Hi everybody, the big day is finally here. Shameless, myself and Kaspaas are leaving today on a little 3 week tour of the Kgalaghadi TFP and Southern Namibia. Everything is ready, Shameless is busy packing at home and I just came in to the office to tie up some loose ends and submit my timesheet (extremely important).
Our travels will take us to some places where I have never been, so I am really looking forward to the adventure. The plan is worked out as follows:
Upington for 3 days
Kgalaghadi for 5 days
Koes (Nam) for 2 days
Windhoek for 1 day
Swakopmund for 2 days
Sossusvlei area for 2 days
Luderitz for 2 days
Rosh Pinah for 2 days
Then we have 4 days to get back to Cape Town.
It took a lot of hard work and a lot of effort from other people besides myself and Shameless to get Kaspaas kitted out and ready to do the trip. I want to thank Allan for the hours/weeks/months that he put in and the frustrations he had to deal with (mainly my full of sh!tness) to get Kaspaas ready. Dankie Tjom dit word regtig waardeer! Hou jou selfoon aan ek is seker jy sal wil kom kuier daar in die Kalaarie...
And then I want to also mention Jacques Basson from Overland Camp Rentals (viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1161&p=9141) for the rental of his own personal fridge, as all his rental units were booked out. Dankie Jacques.
Then to Niel, sorry buddy we never got round to having that "Bon Voyage" SZ that you were so keen on. Tough luck mate, we do it when we come back.
I will take heaps of pictures and do a proper trip report when we are back. Hopefully if all goes well that will be round about that first week in May, when nobody is going to work.

Re: Kaspaas does Namibia.
Terug... ons was actually al verlede Donderdag al terug.. maar baie het intussen hier gebeur. Die trip was BEVANGE! Ek sal nog 'n trip report opstel sodra ek tyd het en fotos laai.
Kaspaas het goed ge-travel, al 6300km sonder enige probleme, but then again, dis mos 'n Hilux, ons het nie verwag dat daar enige probleme gaan wees nie...
Ek is bly om te sien julle het julle mooi gedra terwyl ons weg was... 8) :D

Re: Kaspaas does Namibia.
Ek het gou die syfertjies ingetik en die volgende uitslae gekry:
Km's getravel = 6162.4 km (Gemeet op die Garmin)
Liters gebruik = 874.329 liter
Koste = R7459.64
Petrolverbruik! = 7.04814778 km/l
Ek het amper op my rug geval, ek het so 6km/l verwag... Die canopy het sy werk gedoen...

Ek dink ook dit lyk fishy.... volgende keer moet jy 'n scientific calculator met 10digits gebruik en nie net jou sel se calculator nie!

Re: Kaspaas does Namibia.
As ek by die huis kom, loop ek reguit na die sitkamer toe, sit die TV aan en plak myself daar op die bank neer en skrre vir Swambo: "Gou, bring vir my 'n bier voor dit begin". Down daai bier en skree dan weer :"Gou , bring vir my 'n bier voor dit begin". Die siklus herhaal homself so drie keer en as ek dan weer vra dan tune sy :"Staan op en gaan haal jou eie bier" to which I reply "Jy sien, daar begin die @#$@ nou!"
