Great report. Thank you.
Could you give more details on the water loss issue you had? And how you fixed it?

Need to plan a trip to Richtersveld as well, looks very nice.
What is that white thing in the last photo?
Hi Rudolph
Ian is correct about the solar power plant near Upington. It uses mirrors to reflect the sun against the tower to heat up water. The steam created with this heat then drives the system to create electricity.

Ai ek moet nie die goed lees nie. Veral nie voordat ons wil noord kaap toe. My kennis van karre strek tot, wanneer ek die sleutel draai moet dit vroom maak. Maar dit sal seker n learning experience wees
