Reviews of Etendeka Mountain Camp
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Etendeka Mountain Camp review
This was our favourite place of the whole trip. Dennis and his wife are wonderful hosts and we really enjoyed their company.
Although the camp was full and we all ate at the same long table, we felt like privileged guests enjoying the undivided attention of our hosts. The communal dining sessions helped us to get to know other guests, many of whom we bumped into at other destinations forming a community of Etendeka "graduates" who were keen to find out where we had been and what we had seen since leaving the camp.
Dennis has lived in the area for many years and we enjoyed hearing about the environment, wildlife, local people and their often conflicting needs. The guided walks and sundowner drives helped us to enjoy the fauna, flora and rugged landscape. Most of the wildlife was nervous and it was not possible to get too close but, even so, we saw a lot, including desert elephants on our drive in to the camp on the first evening.
The tents were comfortable, although some people might not be happy about having to leave the tent to go to the toilet or shower. The outdoor bucket shower helped create an impression of rustic camping even if the illusion was spoilt by the presence of solar heated hot water and comfortable accomodation.
The real bush camp experience
Etendeka is the real wilderness, not to compare with other luxury safari camps. Accomodation is simple but very comfortable, the bucket showers are a real experience. At night you hear the hyena cry in the distance...
Dinner is together with the other guests, which can be very interactive. Food is excellent, certainly if you realise that the closest shop is more than 100 km away!
The morning walk gets you as close as can be to the stunning scenery, Bonnie must be one of the most experienced guides in the country. It is not only about the wildlife, but also about geology, plants and the people of Namibia. Very informative with special attention for the kids.
In the evening, Dennis gets you gazing at the stars through his telescope. We never got closer to the real Namibian wilderness than in Etendeka.
Etendeka a real camp
Palmwag lodge a good place to have a drink while awaiting transfer. We were met South of the Vet. gate by Etendeka staff but as we were early they led us to Palmwag lodge where we left car.
I don't think we would have attempted drive to Etendeka even in 4WD although others did. Lovely setting, wilder, more spartan with "real" tents, outside bathroom etc. Still very comfortable. Bucket showers and emphasis on conserving water.
Very sociable: all ate together and went on drives in 2 vehicles. Friendly knowledgeable and enthusiastic staff led by Dennis and Bonny who are legendary. Very international guests but everyone else spoke English (we are so lazy).
Dennis gave us an astronomy lecture with excellent view of Saturn's rings after supper. Not a place to come if you want a holiday camp with a swimming pool (stay at Palmwag), but we loved it as it was real Namibian wilderness.
Etendeka Mountain Camp review
Better than expected. We saw amazing wildlife, including a pride of 7 lion, an Aardwolf, a black mongoose, black rhino and large herds of Eliphant, giraffe, zebra and antelope.
Dennis is a great chap but a bit of an eyore, he has more at Etendeka than he is really willing to use or let on about.
Etendeka Mountain Camp is awesome
Every thing about this camp is awesome - the location, the isolation, the hosts, the sky, the wicked shower......We stayed two nights and wished we'd stayed for three so we could have also done the longer walk up into the hills.
Dennis breathes Etendeka out of every pore and Ivan is a superb companion in interpreting the area - just don't believe all his tall tales.
Etendeka is a great wilderness experience
As a wilderness experience Etendeka is absolutely brilliant and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The freshly home-cooked food deserves a mention too.
Just a couple of comments:-
(1) The small jeep is not really adequate to be used on a game drive for six people - it was really most uncomfortable
(2) Having contacted Etendeka ourselves prior to the trip to advise a birthday of one of our party while staying there, they were kind enough to lay on a bottle of celebratory sparkling wine at dinner, but the surprise rather back-fired as the guide let the cat out of the bag by mentioning this on the drive in to the camp, but was muddled up about whose birthday it really was which spoiled the occasion somewhat.
Close to nature at Etendeka
We waited for more than an hour and a half after the designated meeting time for a couple who never arrived which was a little frustrating but it meant that we traveled the 14 km to the camp as the sun was setting so in better light conditions.
That was the only minus point in an excellent three days. We were taken out by Denis Liebenberg himself as he had given his normal guide a few days off. And as entertaining and informative a guide as you could ever wish for. His knowledge of the area is encyclopaedic but even he was surprised to see a group of Eland; an animal had had never seen there in all his twenty years of holding the concession.
The day is organised with a trek in the morning and a drive in the afternoon. One day' stay would be too short, two days just right but if you were there for three days then I think you would probably be repeating the terrain you covered on day one. The area is full of animals and birds including the rare long beaked lark and a walk up the mountain with the ground covered in semi precious minerals and crystals was an eye opener.
Dining is at a long able with other guests including during our time there Denis, his wife and son. It was a time to discuss the day's activities and to learn more about the country and its people. Denis claims that his he only has four day's worth of menus so was a little worried as an English couple,father and daughter, had booked in to spend a week there so he was looking for three more recipes! When you think that his nearest shop is 140 km away he has to make sure that nothing is forgotten on his weekly shopping trip.
Accommodation is extremely comfortable in safari tents with an outside bucket shower and one goes to sleep with the sound of zebra chomping outside or the mournful cry of a distant hyena. On first morning we woke to find that a there had been a leopard kill a few yards from the complex so the second night Denis set a camera trap and the following morning we were treated to images of a large female leopard devouring the hind quartets of a springbok.
I don't think that one could get a better understanding of the geology and wildlife of Northern Damaraland anywhere else.
Geology and giraffes
We loved this camp - be aware that walking is an integral part of the experience (but the walks are not hard, although the rocks require a decent pair of walking shoes for comfort). The guiding was excellent. The food superb. The tents are exactly what I wanted for this camp (bucket showers are part of the fun!). Our only error was to not carry shampoo (most camps provide and ask you to use their own product) - washing your hair with soap is a little odd.
We saw far more animals than I expected, it seemed there was a giraffe behind every bush!
This camp is on my list of 'must re-visit'.
Note for new visitors: As for most desert areas, there is no laundry at this camp due to limited water.
Etendeka Mountain Camp review
The facilities, food & activities were all great, however, felt the overall experience was slightly less brilliant than other experiences.
Would, perhaps, have liked more interaction with all the staff
Etendeka was a real highlight of our trip
Our visit to Etendeka was one of the highlights of the trip. We were there for 2 nights, and could happily have stayed longer.
Etendeka has probably the smallest human footprint of anywhere we have stayed outside back country campgrounds. But Dennis and his team provide everything their guests need, with gentleness and good humour.
Dennis' long-term knowledge of the area was illuminating, and we appreciated being able to quiz him on the local environment and culture. Ivan is also an entertaining and knowledgeable guide. I doubt we will ever forget what we learned about oryx droppings... (and I mean that in a good way).
We loved the design of the new communal areas, minimal but restful, and making great use of the local rocks. And we enjoyed the simplicity of the bedroom tents (with views of the Hartmann's mountain zebras in the distance). The outdoor bucket showers are liberating!
Oh, and Dennis mixes an excellent gin and tonic.

We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas morning with my family in Peoria. We had a nice dinner, played some family games and attempted to sing Christmas songs while Taylor played the piano. We definitely love having a great pianist in the family to use the piano now! My family isn't too musically talented, so the singing didn't last too long! Christmas morning started way too early (perks of having a child in the house) and I seriously wanted to strangle my little sister hahaha! It was a fantastic morning with my family!
Soon after, Taylor and I were driving to his parents house in Chandler when a car on the I-10 freeway next to us started going out of control and then spun across all of the lanes in front of us. Yup, we got in a car accident on Christmas. Woo! The crazy driver (who had kids in the backseat!!!) fled the scene and we didn't have enough time to get their license. We were grateful that we were both safe, but I felt so bad for Taylor's car! He had bought that car because he had been hit a couple years ago and his old car was totaled. Sometimes bad things just happen.
|Haws brothers on Christmas day!
We had plans to spend the next few days in San Diego with Taylor's family, but after talking on the phone with my Grandma Jones later on Christmas, I knew I needed to get to Cedar City, UT as soon as I could to see her. Her cancer had spread to her brain and lungs and I couldn't stop tearing up thinking that Thanksgiving could be the last time I would see her. I think the car accident made me realize how precious our lives are and I was going to spend time with my grandma while I still could.
|This ended up being the last time I saw my Grandma Jones. She passed away a month after this visit.
I was able to see two of my favorite people while we were in Utah, so that made me a happy girl!

Veronica Hernandez is convinced that immunizations are important for infants. When this Gresham mom became pregnant in 2009, a misinformed friend told her the H1N1influenza vaccine could be dangerous for her baby. But the H1N1 vaccine was manufactured the same way as the seasonal flu vaccine, and proven to be safe and effective.
Pregnant women were over four times more likely to be hospitalized for the flu in Oregon than non-pregnant women in the same age group. "My doctor convinced me it was much safer to get the H1N1 flu vaccine than not get one," says Veronica. The Hernandezes welcomed Gabriel, their healthy baby boy, on February 23. 2010. And because Veronica was protected against the flu, her baby was too.
Each year in Oregon, about 49,000 babies are born who need to be immunized against 14 diseases before age 2. Immunization is the safest, most effective way to control and eradicate diseases such as polio, measles, rubella, diphtheria and tetanus. Yet in Oregon, 5 percent of kindergartners have an exemption for one or more vaccines, a rate that has steadily increased over the last decade. Most Oregon parents do take their children in for vaccinations, yet more than a quarter of Oregon's 2 year olds are missing one or more recommended immunizations.
Since Gabriel was born, Veronica has made sure he keeps on schedule to get the shots he needs to stay healthy. "I think it's really important for me to do everything I can for my baby, including protecting him from terrible diseases," Veronica says. She is also keeping her community healthy by ensuring her baby doesn't pass diseases on to other children.

Happy Tuesday! I hope y'all are staying warm out there, because suddenly winter has struck Arkansas. Let's get out those scarves & boots! You want to know the perfect place to warm up this season? Cajun's Wharf restaurant situated perfectly right on the Arkansas River. I was recently invited out to Cajun's with the Arkansas Women's Bloggers & I would LOVE to tell you all about it.
I met up with my bloggy BFF, Ricci, who blogs over at Imperfectly Ricci. We headed to Studio 2121 in Little Rock to get blowouts before heading to the event. We had to look our best! I would highly recommend this salon, they are great! Check them out on Facebook!
Next, we headed to the main event at Cajun's Wharf. I absolutely LOVE the setting of this restaurant right on the Arkansas River. I had eaten here a couple of times, but this time was different. They truly opened their doors to us and let us see the inner workings of this restaurant! It is so fun being able to see how businesses in Arkansas are successful and have such a passion for what they do.
I want it to be known that Cajun's Wharf uses farm fresh ingredients and everything is made from scratch. Also, your food is made to order, so you know it's not been sitting back there for forever.
The staff, owners, and managers were so helpful to answer all of our questions. They were extremely knowledgeable!
I was super glad I didn't eat before I came, because the appetizers, lunch, dessert, and pizza were all amazing. AND can I please just say that you HAVE to get the "Blackened Chicken Eggrolls" when you go. They are to die for. For dessert: I recommend all of them, but especially the Coconut creme pie!
After we ate lunch, Mary Beth, led us to the open kitchen where we watched a cooking demonstration. Ladies and gentlemen…Mary Beth is a rockstar.
She is such an attentive teacher who really wants to help others be able to cook. She definitely had her hands full with me because we all know I know NOTHING about the kitchen besides what wall color would look best ;)
I had such a great time getting meet other Arkansas bloggers while we were there. We even picked up some fun swag! Thanks, Cajun's!
Be sure to check out Cajun's Wharf. They are also now open for lunch on Monday-Friday 11am-2pm. This is the perfect spot to grab up a bunch of work friends and go!
The owners of Cajun's Wharf have a couple of different restaurants as well. You can check them out below…
>>About Cajun's, Capers, & Copper Grill<<
And for all things Cajun's, visit them on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram!
Thank you again so much to Cajun's Wharf for hosting this lovely event. I will be back SOON!
Until next time, Cajun's! <3

The latest Olympics was held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This multi-sport event started on 5th August and ended on 21st August of 2016. Popularly known as Rio 2016, the event witnessed the participation of 11000 or more athletes from 207 committees of National Olympic. The event highlighted 28 diverse sports, sets of 306 medals and 33 different locations in the hosted city.
Olympic Games are recognized worldwide. Athletes around the globe gather to take part in the event. Archery, basketball, boxing, gymnastics, shooting, rowing, sailing, wrestling, rugby are few examples of the event. Olympic takes place after every 4 years. The summer and winter games are alternative.
Ancient Olympic Games dates back to 776 BC in the state of Olympia, Greece. The event accounted as a religious festival, celebration of a Greek God, Zeus. The participants of the Ancient games were only young, free men who could speak Greek. They used to compete without clothes and the winners were rewarded with the crown of olive leaves. The crown represented hope and peace. Women, at that time, were not allowed to participate in the games. They were not even allowed to watch.
In 393 A.D., Olympics were forbidden by Emperor Theodosius I, labelling the event as a pagan festival which deviated from his religious beliefs.
Olympic Games revived after 1500 years in 1896. The idea was presented by a French nobleman Pierre Freddy, the Baron de Coubertin. He was a young sportsman who was passionate about sports. He believed that sports upsurge peace and bring people all over the world, together. He travelled the world and convinced people of different countries. Due to Freddy's hardworking efforts, the Olympic movement initiated in Paris in 1894. In Athens, Greece, the first modern Olympics were celebrated in 1896. In 1924, winter and summer Olympics were held in the same year till 1992. From 1994, the games of different seasons were held in separate years.
Even in modern Olympics, women were not allowed to participate. It was because, women were prohibited to show any parts of their skin or show their body shape. Hence for years, the struggle did not allow women athletes. From 1900, women began to compete.
The supervision of Olympic Games constitutes of 130 members at present. The election of new members is done by the old ones if required. The condition is to be able to speak English or French. In Lausanne, Switzerland, the IOC is located.
To build a better and peaceful world is the goal of the Olympic Movement. Education through sports is also given to youngsters. The motto of Olympic Games is in Latin "Citius, Altius, Fortius." Which means "Swifter, Higher and Stronger".
I am Smith Baker. I maintain corporate blog updates. Professionally, I have amassed a considerable amount of experience with positions ranging from accounting, web research and editing. I have a wide experience of writing academic content. In this article, I have Shared my Knowledge on Olympics

writing helpfrom expert writers.
We are a team of professional native English speaking writers and students, working day and night to create a helpful academic guide for current students. In our posts, we will uncover the secrets of writing essays, research papers, term papers and dissertations. Sometimes we would take on homework assignments from students and assist them in completing their tasks free of charge.
A List Of 10 Persuasive Essay Topics For 6th Graders
Writing a persuasive essay is like writing something with a purpose to convince somebody to pay attention to your views and follow your line of thought and reasoning in order to make them agree with your views and opinions. Often we may have some strong opinions but when it comes to an argument or absence of agreement with our peers, we tend to lose our confidence on our line of thinking and are likely to get carried away but if you have good persuasion skills then the first thing you would inherently possess is your belief and conviction towards your own opinion without getting swayed by other contrary arguments. Unless there is stability in the thought process, a good persuasion skill will fail to provide the necessary support for your argument from others. Another important thing for persuasive essays is to not get distracted or deviate from your ideas and pursue uniformity in thinking throughout the essay in terms of your views.
A persuasive essay must therefore have arguments and evidence that substantiate your stand on an important topic or issue. It must raise the pitch for people to take notice of what you try to convey by giving a serious thought over how you plan to convey it.
Some interesting persuasive topics are given below:
- 1. You want get leave from your school to have a vacation with family on a foreign trip. How would you seek leave from your teacher?
- 2. You wish to pursue sports as your career but your parents have other plans for you. How will you seek approval for your choice of career?
- 3. Your school cafeteria is good but does not offer good choice on your favorite food. How will you request the school management to include your favorite food in the cafeteria menu?
- 4. Government has made wearing school uniform mandatory for students but you tend to disagree. What will be your argument to scrap the rule of wearing school uniforms?
- 5. Your school does not have good sporting facility to play basketball. How will you convince your school management to have a basketball court in school for training?
- 6. Government has lent its support to women to seek alimony on divorce. How would you convince them to scrap this concept of alimony for working women who are independent with good earning capacity?
- 7. There are many university shootouts taking place in your state with some depressed students resorting to murder and crime. What is your take on the idea of gun control and why you think it is important?
- 8. Co-education is important for getting you prepared to face your future in work environments with confidence.
- 9. Poverty is in any case better than ignorance and lack of understanding. Do you agree and why?
- 10. Corporal Punishment in schools for children who do not fare well in studies and are mischievous is unnecessary and unethical.

Expectations for aspiring teenage singers are fairly well defined thanks to a pop culture that seems to be saturated with them. The list starts with a charming vocal ability, some stage presence and a bit of charisma. Eighteen year-old Rachel Farley definitely possesses all of these characteristics, but where the young Georgia native stands out from the rest is that she also exudes an undeniable air of strong, yet humble confidence, tenacious independence and songwriting that radiates wisdom beyond her years.
When stacking attributes in an attempt to define RED BOW Records Rachel Farley and her music, many qualities quickly step to the fore: Strength. Purpose. Conviction. The rest is almost baseline, a foundation upon which rests her single most unexpected characteristic: Artistry.
Rachel's cohesive sense of self, message and mission casts everything else in sharper relief. Her powerful voice becomes an oak-cured alto equally adept at gut-punch emotion and fire-breathing raucousness. Years spent performing with and learning from Brantley Gilbert, Colt Ford, Luke Bryan, Jason Aldean and more seem to be the apprenticeship of a craftsman. And a fearless honesty amplified by personal tragedy render all but truth inconsequential in the songs she writes. For Rachel Farley, life and music are much too real and much too raw to be forced into a box.
After all, it's not often a 18-year-old breaks onto the scene with a fully formed worldview. "You can be tough and a strong person without being a bad girl or mean," she explains. "You don't have to be a pushover to be a good girl, and you don't have to be fake. And that's what I hope comes across in my music. Obviously I'm young, and with people my age there's a lot of insecurity and trying to fit in, but that's too much pressure. Be who you are and let people respect you for that instead of trying to fit their mold. You can't be extraordinary if you're trying be like everybody else."
And if anything is certain, it's that Rachel Farley won't be following the crowd. "Music is all I ever wanted to do," she says. "When I was four or five I was playing concerts in my bedroom for millions of people and writing songs. When I started playing guitar at 12 and got my first gig, there was no question in my mind."
That first show wasn't exactly a dream come true. "The show was two hours long and, about two weeks before the show, I realized my eight songs weren't going to go very far," she laughs. "So I had my elementary school music teacher come out and play a few songs with me. That made it last about an hour, I took a 15-minute break and did the exact same set again. I had the place packed with friends and most of them never came out to see me again. And I don't blame them at all."
Rachel's learning curve was steep and lightning fast, however. The following year she played 100 shows. At 13, she met then-rising local performer Brantley Gilbert and started opening shows for him. "Of course now he's got radio hits and is blowing up everywhere, but even back then he was huge in Georgia," she recalls. "He was such an inspiration in showing what could be built and the kind of show that could be put on at that level. You don't have to have expensive lights and videos to reach people."
The commitment was already intense. "I went to my first two days of seventh grade and that was it," she laughs. "I had to start homeschooling. You can only have so many fake doctor's appointments before somebody gets suspicious. We were playing so many gigs and driving to Nashville so much that it just didn't make sense anymore."
And there was another kind of education going on anyway. "My mom was really smart," Rachel says. "She read every book she could find on the music industry and did everything she could to help me without being overbearing with my artistic development." Farley met her manager and producer Michael Knox (Jason Aldean) about this time and went on to sign her first recording and publishing deal at 15. It was a bittersweet period for the Farley family.
"That was the year my dad was diagnosed with a very rare cancer," she says. He passed away in August 2011. "You learn so much and it's not all negative," she continues. "There's a side of me that's very blessed to have been through it and have the perspective I have. He was so proud of me – the kind of dad who made sure his co-workers all had my demo CD from when I was 11.
"I don't know that it's affected my music; maybe it's too early to know. You do realize that a lot of things aren't important and some things matter more than people know. Carrying that with me in life is going to make me stronger. At the end of the day what matters is how you and God view yourself. If you know that you can come before God with what you've done in life and he can be proud of you, you've done things right."
Now Rachel's opening for Jason Aldean's sold-out tour with Luke Bryan, and she can be heard on Brantley Gilbert's latest single "Kick It In The Sticks." "'Hey, trouble, whassup?' Yeah, that's me," she laughs. "I'm in the video for a millisecond. And with the tour, Jason heard my music about a year ago and apparently liked it. For him to pick me without a radio hit or anything is amazing." Meanwhile, she's finishing work on her debut album for Broken Bow Records – home to Aldean, Dustin Lynch and more.
One song is particularly dear. "I just call it 'My Daddy's Song,'" she explains. "One of the last things he asked was for me to write him a song, and I actually wrote it the night he passed away." Brantley Gilbert and songwriter Mike Dekle were among the first to reach out to Farley after her father's passing, and she joined them that evening at a benefit show for a fallen police officer. "Getting ready for the show, the chorus just hit me. I remember telling Brantley that if I finished it, I'd sing it at the funeral. I woke up that morning and the rest just fell out in no time at all. I thought, 'Okay, I'm doing this today.' It's everything I was feeling; very honest, very raw."
That kind of depth might not be expected from some precocious kid singer with a big voice, but it's exactly what can be expected from an artist like Rachel Farley.

On his last day of work at Goldman Sachs Group, programmer Sergey Aleynikov sent pieces of Goldman's trading software to an outside computer server, a jury in New York was told on the opening day of his trial on charges that he stole computer code.
Aleynikov "thought that he'd found a foolproof way of getting around the security barriers" designed to prevent employee theft of trade secrets, Assistant U.S. Attorney Joseph Facciponti told the jury, in opening arguments, Bloomberg reported. The export of data took place at 5:20 p.m. on June 5, 2009, he said.
The code was sent to a site in Europe that is used to store computer instructions and was not blocked by Goldman Sachs, Facciponit said. Aleynikov then used another program to try and hide the export, Facciponti said.
Aleynikov was arrested the next month, on July 3, 2009. Federal agents searched Aleynikov's laptop, a flash drive and his home computers, with his consent, Facciponti said. All contained code stolen from Goldman Sachs, according to the Bloomberg report.
Aleynikov is charged with violating the Economic Espionage Act and the Interstate Transportation of Stolen Property Act. U.S. District Judge Denise Cote, who is presiding over the trial, dismissed a third criminal count of unauthorized computer access in September.
If convicted, Aleynikov faces as much as 15 years in prison.
Facciponti told jurors the programmer started at Goldman Sachs in 2007 and worked there until 2009, when he agreed to take a job at Teza Technologies LLC. Chicago-based Teza promised a $1.2 million salary, a bonus and a share of profits, compared with $400,000 he was making at Goldman Sachs, the prosecutor said.
Defense lawyer Kevin Marino argued that Aleynikov intended to strip out pieces of open-source software, which is open to public use and keep that code. Aleynikov did not intend to take any Goldman code. But, Bloomberg reported, Marino did say Aleynikov tried to cover his tracks because he knew he was violating the company's confidentiality rules and feared being sued by the firm.
Aleynikov, an immigrant from Russia who became a U.S. citizen, has been free on bail since his arrest. If convicted, he faces a maximum prison sentence of up to 10 years on two criminal counts. The judge, prosecutors and defense have agreed to allow three weeks for the trial, according to Reuters.
U.S. prosecutors had asked Judge Denise Cote to close parts of the trial to protect Goldman's trade secrets, Reuters reported.

The water surrounding the boat is as blue as the rod in your hands. How deep it is, you have no idea. A warm tropical wind races through the air, spreading around the crisp scent of the sea. Your fly looks like a dashboard hula dancer, a fluorescent wig tied to a hook the size of your palm. Primal beasts rise from the depths, slashing at the offering with pure anger, not an ounce of hesitation coursing through their muscles. A sailfish latches onto your fly, and with the high-pitched scream of your reel as a soundtrack, leaps to the sun in blue and gold flashes, its eyes focused on you. He's your Goliath. The 14-weight, 8'6 Helios 2 is your slingshot. Proudly made in Manchester, Vermont.
Why would we take the world's best fly rod and change it? The answer is simple. We're driven by constant improvement. Put this rod in your hands and feel the rush. You'll completely understand.
