Paul sorry I couldn't make the braai. Was out of town for a few days but managed to finish editing the footage of the trip from Maun to Francistown where we encountered the first bad weather of the trip. I got withdrawal symptoms and flew to Gaberone and back in 6 hours two weeks ago just to complete the trip after having to trailer back. Feeling better now.

Last episode between Francistown and home. Very difficult and disappointing end to a great adventure. Total hours 42 hrs. 30 mins. and 1915 nm's.
