BOTSWANA - 5

west of Gaborone

Ben fixing a substitute for a lost licence plate; various creatures on the road; interesting meteorologic phenomenon; the homestead of a man who hitched a ride with us and spoke fluent Afrikaans - he expressed great interest in my old gym-shoes and gracefully allowed Mercia to donate them to him; small village and serenely slow donkeyteam waggon.
