Very disappointed we left Yaoundé with out our Congo DRC visas, but will explain in full at a later date. Our South African friends have been asked to meet again today and hopefully will get a result.
Out of the Cameroon and into the Gabon.
80 km from a town called Mitzig, we saw a red and white barrier on our left hand side. We got out opened it and closed behind us. Half a mile on we found a clearing in the rain forest, an ideal place to set up camp.
As we finished cooking our rice another vehicle drove past. Some locals called in to steal some aggregate from the heaps in the clearing. Luckily the light had gone and they didn’t notice us camped on the edge of the clearing. An hour later they were gone.
Whilst we were eating our dinner, we were also being eaten. The forest may look stunning, but the insects are nasty. The heat and humidity extremely uncomfortable and as the rainy season has arrived early we had a very wet and noisy night.
