Okonjima Nature Reserve
There were lots of flies this morning. As we were leaving Okahandja, the rest camp manager told us to "Open our boot (1) so she can put all the flies in and we can take them away."
We drove to Okonjima and tracked cheetah. We tracked her (the cheetah) as she tracked some impala. We ran, crouched, walked, stood still, and hid behind bushes so the impala would not see us. Even the tracker had great fun; he said that normally the cheetah just sits around. Unfortunately (for the cheetah), the impala spotted the cheetah, so it was not a successful hunt for her. (Official overview video here: https://youtube/_64xcW5e4jQ ).
We spent the night at Okonjima lodge, which was quite fancy. Roasted Oryx for dinner.
(1) In case you don't speak English, "boot" means the trunk of a car.
