    So good to see this - as we've mentioned to many SA folks, it's fascinating for us Aussies to see how similar the scenery is, yet obviously your wildlife is something else! We're so grateful to you all for taking the trouble to capture your adventures for us! All the best from the Sunshine Coast Hinterland in Australia 👍✌️🙌🙏

      Thanks Paul!! I know - there is so much that is the same but each country has something that makes it stand out!! You guys have got beaches we can only dream about exploring and camping at!!
      Thanks for the positive feedback, really means so much and we really appreciate it!! Hoping one day we get to come explore Australia for a few months!!

    • @gaonelobelo9114
      @gaonelobelo9114 Рік тому

      Noooo, nowhere similar to Aussie. There is wild animals all over and the predators they wanna see unfortunately they can see them and they can not because of engine noises. But otherwise the roads maybe similar to Aussie only along the coastal areas.

    Ooooh Kenny, you and that crew are so damn cool…I love how you scout with that V8 beast…and the little Suzuki is a smart tough little nut to crack. Still to get stuck…😅😅😅. Don’t beat yourself about that stunt you pulled of drowning. It’s what makes the adventure worthwhile. I love my country so much and have been there several times but never take the water crossings 😂😂🙏🏾. You make the beautiful adventures guys🫡✌🏽💪🏽

    Those water-crossings make the Moremi a place where not many Jimnys will ever venture. Though there have been one or two over the years.
    EDIT I am surprised to spot a Jimny drying out right at the end of the video and in my experience dry out is what a Jimny will have to do if goes through water deeper than the top of the wheel-wells unless one is going to first seal a number of spots on the chassis and cabin,.
