The cost to camp at Ai-Ais amounted to N$50-00 for the campsite, N$60-00 per person <strong>and</strong><br />

N$10-00 per vehicle per day. We had take-away french fries <strong>and</strong> cold beer for lunch, spent the<br />

afternoon lazing in, <strong>and</strong> around, the pool <strong>and</strong> enjoyed a delicious meal in the restaurant that<br />

evening.<br />

Total distance for the day was 306km (10km on tar- <strong>and</strong> 296km on gravel roads) <strong>and</strong> travelling<br />

time was 4 hours.<br />

Saturday 29 September<br />

As we had to tackle the long haul home today, we made another early start but were unfortunate<br />

to again arrive at the border post behind 2 busses <strong>and</strong> had to st<strong>and</strong> in a queue to have our<br />

documentation processed. We crossed the border without any problems <strong>and</strong> made our way<br />

south on the N7 to Malmesbury where we turned off to Stellenbosch.<br />

It was considerably greener on the South African side of the border <strong>and</strong> we were soon able to<br />

see the remnants of yet another spectacular flower season.<br />

Total distance for the day was 825km (739km on tar- <strong>and</strong> 86km on gravel roads) <strong>and</strong> travelling<br />

time was 10 hours.<br />
