For Easter I went on a 5 day rafting trip in Namibia on the Orange River! Namibia is about 8-10hrs from South Africa including the time you have to go through customs. Two nights we stayed at a base camp and slept on the grass and the other 3 nights we would just stop along the river and find some nice sand to set up camp. We slept without tents directly under the bright and beaming Milky Way. There were three guides with us and they made breakfast, lunch and dinner. We paddled each day for about 8 hours through still water, rapids, head wind and a hot sun! So far Namibia has been one of my favorite adventures. We had no running water (we filled our water bottles up in the river), no toilets, no cell phones/internet; it was just us in the wilderness and simply enjoying the beauty of nature without any external distractions.
P.S. Kevin and I also celebrated our 2 year anniversary over the Easter weekend! (April 6th)
