Khutse

Steve fixing the water pump
Camp site in Khutse Game Reserve
Khutse presented us with a few new 'problems'. Most of the water we carried was in the X-Cape's tank, and the pump in the caravan would not work. After a day and a half under the caravan, Steve managed to sort out the problems with the pump. Then the geyser would not heat the water. At the same time Ros and Theo started having problems with their fridge. In the end everyone decided to relax and enjoy Khutse. The guys went on numerous game drives, and although Khutse is having problems with a drought, a few of the pans had water and they saw quite a few animals. We saw big lion spoor, but never the actual animal. The beauty of Khutse lies in its remoteness. At night we made huge fires, ate well and looked at the stars. The cold evenings around the fires were warmed by story-telling, laughter and hot coals under our seats! Our 5 nights at Khutse came to an end and we were sad to say good-bye to our beautiful camp site under the massive Camel Thorn tree.
