This was one of the more difficult days, was long and hot and slow going. Once again tar road stopped and then just over 200km of dirt, gravel and sand track all the way to Namibia. The sand got the better of me me a couple of times but it was a fun outing with changing road surfaces constantly. Did not pass any tourists thus far in Angola, just thousands of cattle alongside the road and grass huts. Poverty is bad and the Chinese are here aswell, every country I have been to in Africa so far has a huge Chinese presence.
Got back into Namibia and then had 160km on tar to Rundu where I found Hogo Camp on the river with cold beer and good food.
Day 11 Hogo Camp.
Repacked and cleaned all my gear, as a bottle of milk ruptured in my pannier. Went into town and had my bike washed and the gear lever straightened. Did all my laundry and just relaxing alongside the ri er looking into Angola. Don't quite know what route to take to head back south, but thinking of going to Katima Mulilo, Kasane in Bots then south to Nata and then onwards ?
