We drove 323kms from Windhoek (pronounced vindhook) Airport to our lodge. About 4 hrs including a 20 minute stop for supplies. The first 110 on tar went fast but the gravel was much slower averaging 80km/hr but much slower in spots. Truly in the middle of nowhere for most of it. I think the baboon is the national animal - we saw hundreds beside the tar roads - not so much on the remote ones. More pics tomorrow.

Edit: I ended up with a Toyota Hilux. I got shifting with the left hand down quickly (same pattern) but the stupid blinker is on the right so I keep turning on the wipers which are on the left . . . I only needed 4WD twice.
