    Great video, thank you very much for sharing. What Moremi Permit are you talking about? I've never heard about it before.. If you have a campsite in Moremi you can pay your park fees at the gate. Or perhaps, you needed a permit for a day visit? Did you get it in DWNP'?

    • @CrossAfricaTravel
      @CrossAfricaTravel 10 часов назад

      Thanks so much. Glad you enjoyed the video. When we visited we were told that we wouldn't be permitted to pay Park fees at the gate for a day visit so we had to pay in Maun at the DWNP offices before heading out to Moremi where we were to produce the receipt as permit to enter ..... but that was quite a number of years ago. 😊

    Wupperthal is exclusive racially and on religious beliefs. However, all accept that as normal. Many mission stations operate like that. But when Afrikaners build a town on land they own privately, without government subsidy, the whole world judge them. Journalism is corrupt and immature.

    Hopeful, soon, after more than two decades of medical confinement. Mobility isn't a right, but a privilege. So glad we banked many memories while young, but bad sectors can wipe some of that. So your efforts here are greatly appreciated. When we talked about beeldradio in the 1960's, and used party lines for phones, who could foretell that I could have a large TV showing you on RUclips via a phone that never gets used for calls. 😊

    • @CrossAfricaTravel
      @CrossAfricaTravel 4 месяца назад

      We drove from Clanwilliam towards Ceres. You pass through the main road of Clanwilliam town and simply continue on past the Clanwilliam Dam where the road turns to gravel before you get a signposted left turn into the Cederberg. From there it's just one road all the way to Algeria where you can either take left at the crossroads towards the Uitkyk Pass or go right towards Citrusdal. We headed up the Uitkyk Pass into the Wilderness Area. Here you just keep following the road towards Op-Die-Berg and Ceres. All the farms including Cederberg Wines turn off this road and everything is well signposted.

When you were in Barrydale i was hoping you would swing north along the R62 towards the rest of the Klein Karoo, plenty of dust roads and quaint places, like Van Wyksdorp where I am living. No ffilling station, not an ATM to speak of, lovely restaurants and lovely folk living close to the eart, growing their own food as far a possible. Hope to see you here some time. Nannie Lehmkuhl.

      Hi there 😊 Thanks so much for watching, so glad we could show you the Gorge Cottage. As for the Kgalagadi roads .... they're generally in a good condition but with the sand being deeper than we've personally experienced before (in some places). The problem section on the video was between MataMata and the first picnic site you get to on your way down to Twee Rivieren (I forget the picnic site's name). We were there at the end of February this year and it was very hot, so the sand was very soft in the middle of the day and the fact that the stuck vehicles were running tyre pressures in excess of 2bar contrbuted to the problem.
