Taking our Land Rover to NAMIBIA (Mamili NP) - Exactly one year after we left Europe // EP.50

[@STYLEHUAHINONAIR]

I Love Land Rover.

[@Thebluelandy]

We do too 😊

[@richardsicard8890]

Congratulations to you both for your first year, may you please continue giving us all a superb insight into this natural world.

[@Thebluelandy]

Thank you so much! It is insane to think what we have experienced in a year. Hopefully we can continue traveling the way we do and deliver great quality videos!

[@stevestott1514]

How awesome is that to get to see those lions and all that wild life what a great video again you two . Thanks for sharing your wonderful adventure with us all your over landing friends . And what a awesome year of video’s you have shared with us . Thanks so much . Cheers from Steve Stott in Sutherlin Oregon U.S.A. :) :) 🌍😁👍🏼.

[@Thebluelandy]

Yeah we were hoping for so long to see lions. It’s thrilling, Essentially if they are so close that you can look them into the eyes. I’m glad we can still amaze you with our videos! Thanks for watching!

You will enjoy Nam tremendously - it is a world on it's own my favorite country. Do not be in a hurry, take time as the distances are long and there are a miriad of sights that should be visited. Enjoy. PS - I found the Scrubba wash bag here in South Africa!

[@Thebluelandy]

Ouh yeah, we were looking forward to Namibia, and it exceeded our expectations. Just stunning! So glad you have found the Scrubba, just a tip, get a biodegradable detergent (liquid), so you can do laundry everywhere!

Von den Löwen bewacht legt such Kai zum Mittagsschlaf hin.......😅 Wenn man sieht, wie schön die Welt ist - und was der Mensch daraus macht!!!! LG und freut euch auf eure weitere Reise. Klaus

[@Thebluelandy]

Wenn man vor fünf aufstehen muss um zusammen zupacken um bei Sonnen Aufgang am Gate zu sein dann komm ich um den Mittagsschlaf nicht rum auch wenn der Löwe am Wasser Loch sitzt. 😂

[@bertplank8011]

Most herbivores are not into Lions....infact they're a damn nuisance disturbing their peaceful grazing.....not bothering a soul.

[@gregoryfietz3831]

I loved Namibia when I visited briefly . Now I look around with you guys , marvellous , its like I am there with you . Greg from Australia .

[@Thebluelandy]

Namibia is outstanding! We loved it so very much 😍 we are sure we will come back at one point 😜 enjoy it through our eyes 😉

[@Badfinger7761]

Joyeux anniversaire ! And thank you again for sharing this trip. Beautiful images as usual !

[@Thebluelandy]

merci beaucoup Laurent.

[@shahidahsan6507]

Awesome videos of Africa. For me this is even more special as I used to live in Livingstone, Zambia a long time ago.

[@Thebluelandy]

We had a blast in Africa. And in this case we will never forget the first time we saw a lion! Magical ✨

[@cardinal2872]

Love it ! very beautiful all animals looks amazing and be safe guys

[@Thebluelandy]

Thank you so much! It was spectacular. And incredible to experience it alone in the park. 🤩

[@enjoypladecorrals]

thank you for sharing this video. I enjoyed your one year anniversary on the road! Great little park it is indeed!

[@Thebluelandy]

Thank you for watching and taking time to comment ☺️ it was quite a reward to see our first lion exactly one year after we left off Europe. We would love to be back in that park! So special 😍

[@thomasstrebel2776]

Awesome video. Always very entertaining

[@Thebluelandy]

Dankeschön Thomas!! 🤗🤗🤗

Another great video, happy anniversary

[@Thebluelandy]

Thank you for watching again! Awesome to see you in the comments, always 🤗

[@michael.j.willson]

I was just on that 'highway' the M10 this spring in a commercial type bus and it was brutal!

[@Thebluelandy]

Oh yeah it’s a rough bit of road. I would not want to do it in one of those busses seeing how they drive 😅 Glad you survived it

[@jayforr6964]

I’m new to your channel And enjoying your videos . Happy travels from Jersey Channel Islands

[@Thebluelandy]

Thank you so much! and welcome ! Regards from sunny Namibia

[@chenesa]

Love the channel, been following your journey for a while and hope one day to have a mini version of your trip across southern east Africa (coz of work and stuff😂) Why not Zimbabwe?

[@Thebluelandy]

We love mini trips! We always have done short trips (before this world trip)and we think is the way to go. Specially if you focus it on something specific you want to see or do! Regarding your question. We had to choose from the countries, we really wanted to get to the coast, so we opted for heading towards Namibia. 🤷‍♀️

[@KaburuMNgariama]

Finally. Another one fresh from the kitchen. Am very curious to know how it is you find camp places that are out of the way. Like this at Shesheke....

[@Thebluelandy]

We use google satellite pictures, and occasionally IOVERLANDER to find camp spots. With a bit of practice you can see from the satellite what could be a good place to sleep

[@KaburuMNgariama]

@@Thebluelandy Ala..??? It seems there is need to return to class then......😂😂😂

[@ldosucowboy3279]

Beautiful video of the lions. Very impressed. Thank you.

[@Thebluelandy]

Thank you, glad you enjoy it

[@kondaniphiri1278]

Good episode again.. What’s the story with Kai driving with his left leg up 😂😂.. is that a way of relaxing the leg 🦵 during long drives.. This is where you have to agree with me that the Toyota Prado has a better driving position 😊😅😅.. Keep it 💯 keep moving.. 💪🏾

[@Thebluelandy]

I don’t know to be honest, the Defender as left hand drive is not the most comfortable car to drive in. You always sitting slightly turned. So I try to change it up every once in a while.

[@lezigue1714]

Hi hreat that you saw lions! and this park it seems like a great place. I have only visited Tbwabata and the Mahango np in the Caprivi.

[@Thebluelandy]

It was absolutely amazing! Specially being so close and taking all the time in the world to watch them. If you have a chance to go back to this region, make sure to visit Mamili. If you do, let us know as we have the contact of Keith and he might be happy to let you know the INS and outs of this park!

[@lezigue1714]

@@Thebluelandy If I am in the area I will visit it, probably on my way or returning from Chobe.and will let you know..

[@grahames9228]

Well done, one year and going strong.

[@Thebluelandy]

Thanks, it’s fare from being over

[@desertchild3550]

Wellcome to Namibia. Look forward to meet you guys in my town in the South.The tracks you saw was from hyena. The clue is large paw(front) next to small paws which are the rear paws.

[@Thebluelandy]

Thank you for the clue!! Now we know. So many times thinking it was lion and it has been always hyenas. Even in Skeleton Coast we thought it was a female with a cub. But now it makes sense! We are sadly now in South Africa! Our videos have quite a delay. 🥺

[@desertchild3550]

@@Thebluelandy I,m based in Luderitz so if you guys aroundmfeel free to drop in.

[@brandenburgz.b.v.]

Hallo, noch eine Anmerkung zum Sambia-Video. Kauft euch für den Motorkühler so ein Mesh/Netz, das man davorspannen kann. Wenn ihr in Namibia seid, gibts das für ein paar Euro bei Cymot. Sieht so ähnlich aus, wie das grüne Moskitonetz von den südafrikanischen Dachzelten. Sehr robust und in 2 Minuten montiert/demontiert. Damit erspart ihr euch langfristig viel Ärger und Schäden am Fahrzeug. Viele Grüße

[@Thebluelandy]

Hey Danke für den Tip! War das erste was wir uns in Namibia zugelegt hatten. Und wie es so ist hatten wir seitdem kein hohes Gras mehr. Trotzdem gut im Gepäck zuhaben, nimmt ja nicht viel Platz weg.

[@brandenburgz.b.v.]

Optimal. Haben ist besser als brauchen! Viel Spaß noch

[@siavashezati1435]

thanks for sharing

[@Thebluelandy]

Anytime, thanks for watching

[@defendermodsandtravels]

We have been travelling around southern Africa (SA, Namibia, Zimbabwe and Botswana) for 6 months. In that time we had one sighting of a lion Similar to you really.

[@Thebluelandy]

Yeah!! The thing is that many times when coming from Europe we have the expectation, that there are lions everywhere in the continent. The reality is sadly completely the opposite. If we would have traveled int he dry season we most probably would have seen many. But, we got to see other things!

[@bonifacemugambi4252]

I have been following your journey all the way from Kenya. It's very inspiring and am wishing you all the best. Are you on tiktok?

[@Thebluelandy]

Always happy to see your comment! No, we are not in TikTok, but you can find us in Instagram. But take care , you might get some spoilers for next episodes 🤪

[@davegreenwood1663]

I will never complain about the pot holes on some of the roads in uk after seeing that road ,if you can call it a road.

[@Thebluelandy]

I’m not really sure if you can still call them potholes. It looked more like they fired artillery at the road.

[@vandrareg2]

from 5.58 to 7.00 best silent comment .( I did experience it also too often.)

[@Thebluelandy]

Hey !! What do you mean ? 🙋‍♀️

[@andreadekrout5222]

Little tip for pawprints - if the print has claw marks at the end of the toes its a dog/wild dog/hyena if it doesn't its a cat lion/leopard/caracal. The only exception to this rule is cheetahs which are the only cats that cant retract their claws.

[@Thebluelandy]

Hey Andrea, thank you so much! I wish We knew that before, that would have saved us a lot of worrying cooking outside when it’s dark 😅

[@diasmatamu4529]

How much did you budget for 1 year trip in Namibian dollars

[@Thebluelandy]

Hey, we actually made a Video talking about it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGPYdIqhqNiIgMk The exchange rate 1€ = 20Nam$
