Re: Trip Report - Bots in July
2024/07/10 - Elephant Sands Not sure if I have mentioned it already, but my mother has a thing for elephants. So we spent an extra day at Elephant Sands. Most of the people were just overnighting and so we had the camp-site to ourselves the next morning. I'll be dead honest - if you'd told me at so...

However, I do not know the details on this as I am running s...

I could point you at the reference library which has various manuals and similar. Howe...
