Day Eight Des and myself on our own

After breakfast this morning our ways parted with Anton and Debbie going down the West Coast and Des and myself heading up North. We did our last bit of shopping in Springbok and then headed up towards Steinkopf where we took a tunoff to Port Nolloth.

There was a heavy mist which made sight seeing a little difficult so we did a quick visit to the museum. We left Port Nolloth and backtracked a little way and truned off heading to the Richterveldt.

The road leading to Eksteenfontein
 We headed up a a dirt road and eventually came to Lekkersing a small village and then went on to Eksteenfontein where we thought we would stay over for the night. But there was no decent campsite so we moved out of town a couple of kilometres and camped off in a quite spot off the side of the road. We just made a small fire and braaied a pork chop for ourselves.
