The road from Katima to Popa Falls was upgraded to a tarred road in the 1980s by the SA Defence Force to give easy access right along the border and into Angola. It goes from East to West and is absolutely flat and straight for 500kms ending at Rundu.
When we decided to visit our children in Katima Mulilo (I shall use the shortened term Katima in this blog) situated at the far NW corner of the Caprivi Strip in Namibia, in May 2004, it would be our 2nd opportunity to venture into parts of Africa which were prohibited…
While on a trip in 2014 to visit our daughter and son-in-law, Lyn & Tyrone, in Swakopmund, Namibia I had thought about writing a daily travel blog but we were so busy travelling and rediscovering that I decided to wait until we were back home.
