Sunday 20 Mar 2016<\/p>\n

A nice easy\u00a0ride of only 33 miles and a steady continual climbing\u00a0of\u00a01,247 feet. Which was just as well as I had a terrible night’s sleep at the Seeheim Hotel the room was very stuffy and the fan very noisy. The breakfast, however, was more filling\u00a0than last nights dinner. I felt quite sorry for the owner running a pretty big hotel down a dirt track with no mains electric etc.<\/p>\n

On arrival at Keetmanshoop I went straight to the station and discovered that since it was Sunday the ticket office was closed till 4.15pm so I wandered around town trying to find a place to hangout. The Canyon Hotel was totally soulless so after a drink I moved on to Steers the burger \/ Pizza bar \u00a0\ud83d\ude41 the best place I found in the end was Central Lodge Hotel . At 4pm I returned to the station and read the other notice which said due to Independence Day tomorrow the train tonight was cancelled \ud83d\ude41 \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

So back to the Central Lodge where a party of Germans was unloading from a coach, fortunately they \u00a0had a single room available cash only! and WiFi that works.<\/p>\n

Unbelievably Picasa uploads also started working again creating new directories OK so maybe it was just a glitch in the changeover at Google.<\/p>\n
