Arriving at our first destination in the Kalahari desert we got our lesson in putting up the tents. The tents were very heavy duty guys, and large enough so I could just stand – very spacious for one person.
I never once managed to put up the tent by myself and I think at one time or other everyone lent me a hand. Nevertheless my fingers are callused, my thumbs cracked, and every nail is broken. But it was worth it!
