Going from Grootfontein to Etosha, we drove through Tsuneb before getting closer to the Park.

Got some radars on the road as well ; D

With no GPS, and no map in our hands, it was a bit difficult to find the Park's entrance. In a desperate attempt, we switched the TomTom on for a couple of seconds, just to try if it could give us some info, and it worked!!

We drove through the Park for around six and a half hours, not without getting a bit lost in it, and our 2x4 wasn't the best vehicle either, but we made it, and saw very nice animals over there.

This park is a bit more natural, there's no tar roads in it, so it makes Kruger Park look a bit more like Disney land.

Just out of the Park, we stayed in Etosha Safari Camp, very nice ''poshy'' camp.
Decoration is excellent, and we enjoyed listening to two guitarists/singers while sipping some wine at the local bar.

A guy explained us a bit more about how this camp was created, then he talked about his people and where he comes from, what his name means, and how his people speak clicking their tongs! We enjoyed this evening a lot!

That night, the worst thunder storm I've ever witnessed happened! And we had to sleep in the tent!!

We thought it woud never resist, but it did, so I'm kinda proud of the purchase I did ; D

Same kind of Park as Kruger Park, but no tar roads, so we were the only ones with a 2x4 car.... Better to get prepared and go with a 4x4. Nice animals there!

Early mornig is the best time to see wild animals in the park, so, might be hard but it's worth it!!
