    Namaqualand – A Veritable Eden
    Namaqualand is situated to the north of the agriculturally rich region of Cape Peninsula. The region has the minuscule town of Garies in the south, just touching its border, and in the east, there is the dry and infertile Pofadder, while in the north is the River Orange, the provider. The rugged coastline of the Atlantic Ocean is in the west of Namaqualand. Namaqualand is arid most of time. It is almost semi desert like.

    Sabi sands game reserve – My Experience
    It had been years since I went for a good safari in Africa. The anticipation was exhilarating. I was about to head to the Sabi Sands game reserve, which forms part of the Kruger National Park in South Africa. The Sabi Sands Game Reserve is located neighboring the famous Kruger National Park, and there is no fence between the two. The animals roam freely between the two National Parks. Actually the Sabi Sands game Reserve is the more beautiful of the two, and more animals seem to like it here. Almost everyone I met in South Africa seemed to personally vouch for the latter.
