19/21 March: We went further south to see the "Waterberg Plateau" and met other volunteers. The weather stayed fine for us most of the time and so were able to make two ascents to "Mountain View" (see photo) and make a little detour to see one of the many small canyons. This is a different aspect to the Namibian landscape that we haven't seen before with the colours of the sandstone and the lush green that has come with the heavy rains this year. The woods below the rim of the plateau were dense in places with lots of flowers, butterflies and birds. We saw "Rock Dassie" several times on the "Mountain view route ".On the plateau there are rhinos, leopards and antelope but that will have to wait for another visit if we have time left.
