We wanted to show you all our self-drive safari truck… or our home on the road currently. We picked up our trusty Toyota Hilux in Aug 8 in Joburg. We promptly named her Hennie Hilux for the duration of the trip. She has everything we need to live comfortably for the following 25 days. Here is a series of pictures to show you how we’re living.
- Meet Hennie the Hilux
- Our tent is on the roof of the car. It’s tied down tight during the day.
- We unwrap it at night.
- Then it is a simple unfolding off the top.
- Tada! A nice and cozy space to sleep. Plenty of room for 2 people and some gear.
- That’s not all she has for us though.
- A refrigerator pulls out the back.
- These boxes have camp gear of all sorts: cooking, safety, and food.
- This is just one of many.
- There is a table slyly stuck on the roof.
- Everything we need for a comfortable camp!
Very cool. Have enjoyed all the postings!
Home sweet Hennie!
