Today was more or less the same as yesterday, only less. Put my head out of the tent at 06:00 to find that it was cloudy again so I went back to sleep.
The zips on our tent have given up so we have to close them really carefully and hope that there isn't a really big wind. I am not sure where we can get them fixed but we have to do it, these zips are really broken.
We hid under awning again for most of the day and I am really happy with how the awning is turning out. It isn't as difficult to erect as I thought it would be and because it is 100% shade cloth doubled over it give really deep shade. I spent most of the time reading the "Language instinct" and finding it really heavy going but I soldier on.
We went for another drive on the same route as yesterday only in the opposite direction and it was all going very well until the sun set behind a cloudbank depriving me of the the colourful sunset on the reddish granite of Spitzkop. Again we saw some interesting birds, today it was a Dusky sunbird, a Rock Kestrel and a Rosy faced Lovebird.
So that it is pretty much it, back at camp we started packing up what we could and found the mouse had come of visit again.
