Mu goodness, Africa is so beautiful!!!

[@contrarian717]

Very few videos are top class imo. This one is. Well done. You talk so well. Passion in your voice.Subscribed

[@EdwardBath]

Thank you so much Carel! Appreciate the support and the sub mate

[@AdventuresOfTrinahr]

nice to see Chri cooking. and the tomato paste can nearly revelead the secret. I have always asked when is his turn to cook😜😂

[@amandalansdell1074]

Love the bush sounds!!!

[@EdwardBath]

Thanks Amanda

[@gillesguilbert]

I'm very fond of all your videos. Your Mapungubwe one triggered in me the will to go there, which I did last year in September-October. It was fantastic: not the best time of the year to see lots of birds, but I saw lions, many elephants and elands, and the landscapes are awesome. I often go to South Africa but it was my very first time at Mapungubwe. I wish I were a professional like you. I content myself with shooting and editing amateur musical video clips mainly with birds, but also other animals seen in South Africa. Your videos are an example to me and a target I will never reach. Please continue to make us dream !

[@drup2013]

Absolutely gorgeous scenery. African bush is second to none. Neatly edited video as well..

[@EdwardBath]

Thank you so much bud!

[@michaelgarlickmovies]

I thought it was going to be a bit long, but I enjoyed every minute of it.

[@EdwardBath]

Thank you so much Michael! I was also conflicted on the length but I just couldn’t cut out anything else 😂 filmed a little too much on this one.

[@jameslaurie8912]

Mapungubwe looked lovely and lush. Thank you for sharing.

[@EdwardBath]

Only a pleasure James!

[@my_return_tickets]

Every time I watch one of your episodes I become emotional due to the extraordinary scenery, the sounds of Africa, the information shared, you’re knowledge and passion! I miss South Africa beyond words but your videos make me feel that much closer to home! Now we just need to somehow invent ‘smell’ through technology so we can smell the potjies and of course the African wildlife/bush air!! Thank you

[@EdwardBath]

Thank you so much for the awesome comment and amazing support! Africa is amazing that’s for sure 🙏

[@deonvangreuning555]

Excellent video Ed, lovely seeing the bushveld so lush and with all the bird calls. Great work done putting it together.

[@EdwardBath]

Thank you so much Deon!

[@slogsweep4922]

i love southern africa so much . absolutely stunning

[@dewaldvanstaden440]

I remember playing that Penguin game on the console where you had to avoid the holes in the ice (Antarctic Adventure). That helped me prepare for driving in SA.

[@samanthascott4125]

What a difference!! Thanks for sharing

[@shisaeco-briquettes3389]

Watching Chris make the potjie was a Deja vu of note.

[@charlenetetzler1446]

Wonderful!❤

[@sinjhguddu4974]

Feeling very low today, this video really woke me up! Thanks Bro!

[@EdwardBath]

[@dieterholle5666]

[@EdwardBath]

Thank you so much Dieter!

[@tammyfree3037]

Wow! Amazing. I miss the sounds of the bush so much! Had to have a laugh at Chris and the cans!

[@EdwardBath]

Thanks Tammy! Haha it was a good laugh 😂

[@daveysmithRSA]

wonderful video, the sights and sounds of a lush green African Bush brought back so many memories, I could almost smell it 🤗... those morning sounds... amazing stuff😎

[@EdwardBath]

Thank you so much David!

[@joaocarlosandrade4520]

Another fantastic vídeo, thanks for sharing 🙏

[@EdwardBath]

Thanks mate!

[@alexandervanwyk7669]

Hi Ed and Chris. Wonder if you guys are aware that 500 years before Van Riebeeck discovered South Africa (Cape Town), Mapungubwe was a thriving African Kingdom. Apparently it lasted some 200 years after which likely drought and over gracing made it unsustainable. The tribes moved North and started what's now called the Zimbabwe ruins. One of the biggest tribes, the Khama tribe eventually relocated to the West. Hence the late Sir Seretse Khama that governed Botswana.

[@EdwardBath]

Hey Alexander! Thanks so much we had no idea!

[@crl633]

"There is no place like the African bush"

[@davehowell6453]

Edward, mate, Such a wonderful vid! You've covered all my bases, great views, great wildlife, great commentary. But mostly, the birds, mate. Their calls are so haunting, so beautiful. Thank you. I'm sitting here in Auckland, huddled up against the fire because it is freezing. But my heart is warm, mate. Warmed by the sights and sounds of Africa. Thank you for sharing. God bless, Dave PS Please give my regards to Chris when you see him again.

[@EdwardBath]

Thank you so much Dave! The bird sounds will always go in because there’s nothing like it that’s for sure 🙌 thanks for the constant support! I will certainly do that, god bless

[@nickbronkhorst4519]

Absolutely lovely high quality professional footage, love watching your videos

[@EdwardBath]

Thanks Nick!

[@davidkurutah]

I came across Edward's channel right at the start. Aim for high quality work right from beginning was clear - besides sharing camping knowledge, the production quality is one thing that I've always appreciated; superb filming skill and great sound for home experience - you've set the bar high. Greetings from Kenya 🇰🇪.

[@EdwardBath]

Thank you so much David! Supporter since day 1! I really appreciate it.

Hello Ed. I was wondering when I would see you again. I am thrilled to see you pop up in my feed. This is truly my favorite place. Your video has done it justice. I plan to visit in September. I am struggling with long covid so no camping. We will be staying at Limpopo Tented and Vhembe camp to take in both sides of this truly wondrous place.

[@EdwardBath]

Thank you Wendy! I hope you get better soon 🙏

[@cwsshivati]

Ah fantastic video Ed, thanks for this one. We are booked for Mapungubwe in Jan 22 so hope (1) we can get there from EU and (2) would love to see the rivers in flood as you have done! 👍👍

Thank you so much! I hope everything works out for you guys!

Rain season = mozzie feeding season. How many tins of Peaceful Sleep did you guys use?

[@EdwardBath]

Plenty 😂😂

[@murraydicks9784]

Hi Edward, thanks for the great videos. Would you mind telling me where you got the dark grey dashboard cover for LC 200?

[@EdwardBath]

Thanks Murray! It’s from Takla Products 🙌

[@robertharold2503]

Good video..was the cooking scene with Chris from another video?

[@EdwardBath]

Thanks Rob! Yes it was in Chris’s episode 🙌

[@catherineferreira5649]

Love this series. Where or how does one book at Blouberg reserve?

[@conloubser]

I'll give Chris a can opening tutorial, for free!

[@EdwardBath]

😂😂

[@melissadeysel6634]

Is that pothole road the R36 or R34, we drove both on our way out of the kruger last week, nerve wrecking in a car or small suv

[@EdwardBath]

Not sure which one it was but all of the roads up there are like that unfortunately 👎 very nerve wrecking

[@kraakmy5691]

Hi Edward, my wife and I enjoy your videos very much, thank you for the interesting entertainment. I have one question, please, where can we buy the stainless steel upright kettle you use while camping? Thank you. Regards

[@EdwardBath]

Thank you so much for the support and awesome comment! It’s from Echo 4x4 centre but I think you can also get a similar one from goodnel 🙌

[@axelcartwright4507]

😂 good old South African potholes. You’re tyre shop makes bucks off the wheel alignments, maybe that’s why they don’t fix them, (South African conspiracy theory 🧐)

[@EdwardBath]

They don’t mess around hey 😂 those guys must make a killing

[@pauldarbishire7226]

Where's the PayPal link Ed?

[@EdwardBath]

Hey Paul! Hope you are well, I’m just checking here and it says that you need my email address for the PayPal link and then I confirm it from my side, is this correct?

[@pauldarbishire7226]

No - you have to put a link from your site to your bank account. I thought you'd already set it up?

[@EdwardBath]

I have already set it up because Patreon pays into the PayPal account but it doesn’t give an option to share my bank details off the site?

[@pauldarbishire7226]

Sorry Ed but every creator on KZbin that I support has a PayPal link. Why would I, the supporter put up a link to my account - that doesn't make sense, does it?

[@EdwardBath]

Hi Paul, sorry for the confusion, here is the PayPal link, thank you so much for the support 🙏 paypal.me/EdwardBathOverland?locale.x=en_US

[@steveblack4576]

Hi Ed do you have an email address to chat on regarding Botswana please. Thank you regards Steve.

[@jpsunkara9252]

While you're camping and staying inside the Park Elephants lion's and spotted hyena's these wild animals try to attack? On you're camp If any problems arises while you staying at the camp? Anyway Highly Risky process closely watching floura and fauna travelling on the dusty and bumpy mudded roads it's very challenging task

[@EdwardBath]

Hey bud can't make sense fo what you are trying to say. There are no lions at blouberg
