Palmwag sunset

Sunset at Palmwag, after we'd figured out which road we were on. We had spent most of the day driving around looking at game animals, and getting hopelessly lost. Saw some great animals, but I think we were pretty far off the map they gave us. After about 6 hours of driving around alone watching sprinkbok, oryx and zebras, we saw another car. It happened to be the afternoon game tour from the Pamwag Lodge, so we followed them back. We're still not entirely sure where we were, but we saw some big herds over there. Lots of springbok and oryx, a group of 14 kudu, several giraffes, some koorhaans (big, ground-dwelling birds), and the occasional elephant track, complete with dung.
