Tour or De-Tour??

I chose the latter...So my tour (Niv) leader fell in Zambia and suffered a 10x7cm hematoma in her right thigh. After one week her leg was looking worse so she went to the hospital in Maun, Botswana while I spent two lovely nights relaxing in the Okavango Delta. At the hospital the doctor ended up performing an I & D and told her the dressing needed to be changed daily. So I decided to stay behind with her because she needed the help to get around. We left the day after the tour truck set off for Etosha National Park in Namibia. We decided to take a $7 bus from Maun to Ghanzi (4 hours) then another bus (2 hours) from Ghanzi to Charles Hill (near the border of Namibia) the bus drops you off about 8K from the border, so we hitched a ride with two people. We were very fortunate to find two very nice gentlemen from Sri Lanka (Niv's also Sri Lankan) who offered us not only a ride to the border, but all the way into Windhoek (which is 300K from the border). Anyway, they dropped us in town at a gas station and we planned on getting a taxi from there when a wonderful local German couple offered to take us to our accommodation. We've been so fortunate!!! We also lucked out on our accommodation in Windhoek, because it's really heaven...slate tiles throughout the rooms and in the shower a comfy bed with two huge pillows (I appreciate the small things after camping for the last 40 some odd days)!! It was so nice after such a long day of traveling!! Niv is doing well and we went to the hospital today and the doctor said the wound looks good and is healing just fine. So rest easy everyone, she and I will rejoin the tour in Swakopmund tomorrow!!
