Mäuser spoils us with the most important meal of the day: breakfast. This is at least as important as dinner and so, in addition to homemade jams and spreads, there are things like smoked zebra meat, giraffe chutney and fresh rolls. After this start to the day - the children have now also looked after various animals and petted all the dogs half to death - we set off to see the largest meteorite in the world (in one piece): the Hoba Meteorite. This is not far from Grootfontein and could not be moved due to its enormous weight. It consists mainly of iron (97%), is cuboid-shaped and can only just be grasped by the seven of us. We also look at the Old Fort Museum , in which a comprehensive collection on various topics can be admired.
We have experienced a lot in the last 14 days and it is time, especially for the children but also for the adults, to calmly reflect on things and update the diaries, photos and postcards. For this reason, only the swimming pool and the beautiful gardens of the Tigerquelle are on the agenda this afternoon. Guests from Germany and Austria are coming to the nearby campsite at short notice. They visit us for dinner and we learn that they do not plan to return to Europe for two years with their specially imported 4x4 off-road 3.5 t truck. The sprightly pensioners have decided to get to know Africa more or less completely.
The day ends with a feast of stuffed squashes (small pumpkins), eland steaks and many familiar and unfamiliar side dishes. Mäuser's basic training in the kitchen and his passion for good food really shine through and we enjoy what is probably the best dinner of our trip so far.
