Thursday 14.03:
In the morning we drove down to a scenic dammed lake and made our coffee,
muesli, fat cake breakfast. Afterwards we visited world view a barren granite
mountain with a great view over the bizarre surrounding landscape. On top john
Rhodes the founder of the former Rhodesia was buried.
We left the park to drive up to north through the center of Zimbabwe. We had heard a lot of warnings about going to Zimbabwe before. However we experienced the opposite: friendly people, good roads, ATM machines with us dollars the main currency here, and plenty of fuel stations.
On the road I unfortunately was forced to drive on fresh tar by oncoming traffic. The next morning it took us about two hours to rub it off the car finish with molten butter (we got that tip from www.fragmutti.de). We did not find any safe sleeping spot until we finally were allowed to sleep in our seats in front of a night club/hotel. In the middle of the night a drunk women desperately tried to get into her van for about 1 hour making a big noise. At 5:30 the night guard politely asked us to leave.
