Windhoek (Namibia) to Maun (Botswana), Discovery B&B
Today we’d booked an early bus from Windhoek to Maun, our base for exploring the Okavango Delta (well, one very small part of it). Pickup time was 6am – and as appears to be a persistent problem, the bus didn’t turn up. We called the bus company around 6:20am to find out what was happening ….. first we were told it was meant to be a 7am bus, then a call back told us it was on its way. We finally headed off around 7:10am ….. 70 minutes of lost sleep!
The trip was pretty easy – we were the only ones on the bus, a 14 seater, so Kathryn made her own first class section by lying on the back seat, and tried as hard as she could to get those 70 minutes back! The only minor hiccup was when the bus driver tried to enter Botswana via the Namibian immigration lane – it was if he had never done the trip before! We also had to get the GPS out to direct the driver to our accommodation in Maun, another common problem it seems!
