Home to Chasmiru Campsite, Botswana – 345km’s

The RV; Code Name ‘Wild Dog’ and FJ; Code Name ‘Badger’ made an early start, travelling north by north west, to beat the morning traffic. Spirits were high and the vehicles were packed with everything except meat, animal products, vegetables and fruit. The recent Foot and Mouth outbreak in South Africa had made border authorities highly vigilant.

Breakfast in Swartruggens

An easy trip through Skilpatshek border post

We checked into our campsite outside Labotse and then enjoyed a quick trip around the small town in search of braai meat, rolls and nibbles.

Setting up the tent on the FJ for the first time was a breeze, the new Alva gas braai worked well and we enjoyed the entertainment offered by the visiting vervets, Jill Russel and a few short rain showers to cut the heat.
