Everything's Betta In Betta

Betta is a ranch at a crossroads in the Namib, with a small store and restaurant, a gas station, and campground. We were glad to get there and to end the day's driving. The electricity was insufficient for powering the ACs of nine motorhomes, but the heat was bearable, and as the sun set, the temps fell. I found the "off the grid" nature of the place of interest, and later we had another memorable braai.

Washboard road; "corrugated" as our friends said

Betta is a livestock operation with a gas station, a small store/ restaurant, and a
campground; all off the grid, so to speak; well, on its own grid

Nicely landscaped for this part of the world; there was a small orchard out back
