Taranga Caprivi Strip
Camp 4
For
the first hour after leaving Nambwa we were driving in deep sand next to the
Linyanti River viewing game. Elephants
crossed the road in front of us.
After reaching the main highway B8 we turned
east toward the Etosha Game Park. We
stopped after 5 hours of driving where the Okavango River flows from Angola
through Namibia and down into Botswana where it disappears in the delta
floodplains.
The
local people here congregate around the river in the evening to take baths, do
their laundry, laugh and play.

We are driving to a lodge named Tarranga. It is near Rhundu. It was the best stopping point on our way to Ethosha. In the evening we went on a sundown boat ride on the Okavango River.

Along the river we watched kids playing, people washing clothes, fishing and enjoying life. The sunset was beautiful. We saw a small crocodile and some colorful birds.
