Rachael Anderson commented on Day 60: Sosusvlei

How great you decided to take time now to fo this tour while you are still young! We retired 7 years ago and sold our condo and took off on an 8 week cycle tour in Europe which we had planned before we decided to hit the road. We’ve done several long bicycle tours since then and have no plans to settle down.

That's very close to the route we drove in our rental car - had quite lot of muddy roads that had me wondering if we were really on the right road at all. In the opposite direction

Some species of Tenebrionidae.

Possibly the desert toktokkie.
