South Africa Vehicle

This is the vehicle we had to use in South Africa. The reason is that the south African government requires all overland vehicles in operation in South Africa to be South African vehicles. Or some other silly rule. I saw many other overland vehicles in South Africa but not any from the overland company I used. This means that we got up early in the morning, made the border crossing from Namibia into South Africa, transferred our bags and persons to the bus pictured here and then high-tailed it into Cape Town. No camping or other recreational activity. Just scoot. We arrived around 4:30 PM. We checked in. We grabbed some refreshments and had our departure dinner at 7:30 PM. It was a touching moment.
