Day Nine Ekstenfontein to Sendlingsdrift

With a nice early start we set off and arrived a Kuboes another village in the middle of nowhere.

After a brief look around and a chat to a local farmer we made our way to Alexander Bay where we filled up with fuel and after a while we backtracked again a tool a dirt road which would evenyually bring us out at Sendlings Drift where we would made our bookings for the Richterveldt.

Approaching Alexander Bay
Our first campsite was at Potjiespram a campsite on the banks of the Orange River. Monkeys were again fearless so you had to keep a watch on your food and perishables.
