Of mice and men

Okay, so we were supposed to be heading to Ghanzi on the way to Windhoek after we got off the truck, but it seems that we strayed a little from that plan.

We got off the truck today to start our own mini adventure away from the truck. We got a lift into town with another truck because we were drinking with them last night and they said "Cool, we'll give you a lift. No worries".

As it turns out we missed the bus to Ghanzi because tourist information had given us completely the wrong times. We finally found out that the other main bus would go at 4:30 but then Kath found a little bus that would go at two. Sweet, all sorted.

So we then had some time to kill. We decided to walk to the airport for a bit of fun. On the way there we were joking about catching a flight to Ghanzi (where we were headed), but then the conversation turned to doing something silly like flying to Jo'berg because Kath needed to get some money out of an ATM (there are none in the towns we are going through at the moment). We were laughing about it when we got into the airport only to find that the only flight for the day was a flight to Jo'berg.

We were still joking around when we remembered that car hire is a lot cheaper in SA versus Namibia. So, just out of curiosity we asked prices of flights. We previously said if it was 100 pounds or cheaper we would do it. Still laughing away....

....but then she said it was 100 pounds to Jo'berg!

So, we are about to go hop on a small cessna plane and fly from Maun, Botswana to Jo'berg, SA in about 30 minutes! ... And all because Kath wanted to get some money out of an ATM!
