Headed for Botswana! The road to the border goes through the Mahango Game Park and I needed to stop and tell the gate keeper my intentions. She said I needed to stay on the main road and go straight to the border control, I didn't. Mine as well take a ride around the park.

The road, if you go straight through the park is about ten miles. When I arrived at the border the officials wouldn't stamp me out of Namibia, the gate lady saw me take the turn off the main road and I was in the park for an hour and a half. I was instructed to return to the main gate and speak with the lady. I did the short ride back and the lady was there to greet me, and man was she pissed off. After about ten minute of getting yelled at I finally got a word in to say I was very sorry and that I didn't understand the rules. She calmed down quite nicely and just charged me the park entrance fee. The fine for riding a motorcycle of the main road is about 50 USD, she forgave that.
Forst night in Botswana!:
