Hey guys it's me Anna Maria I enjoyed this new video sorry you have such a bit of rough time scenery was beautiful and I'm glad you were able to continue with your overall happy and let's move onward attitude I can't wait for next Sunday be safe and see you soon
Hi Ana Maria, Great to hear from you friend, its been quite a week! lots of exciting things happening at the moment and we are excited to share them with you. Thanks so much for watching and taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🚐
Thanks Sharon, great to hear from you friend. A different kind of Newby video this week, and the crickets… well, type two fun?!! We are already editing next week Sunday video and also hope to have a Wednesday video out this week 🤞Sunday = Ghost town…. That’s all we are saying!!! Thanks so much for watching and taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🚐
Hi Bev! Loads of bugs! That’s Africa for you. We were surprised that they got out of the way of the truck though, very smart. Thanks again for watching. 👍
Hey Meinart, how are you both? Crickets were crazy and Andre was a bit of a rock star to be honest. Great week of travel. Thanks as always for travelling with us friend. 👍❤️🌍
@@TheNewbys Hi gang! We are doing alright. Here is 35 cm snow and about -10 C so for the first time in 11 years we can have a white december. It´s just a treat to "meet" and see guys like Andre that puts his heart into it. Then the Fab 3 in a sunset of dreams. Life is what you make it and boy, you are making the most out of it. Stay safe. Hugs and sunshing reggae!
Awesome canyon. The crickets, birds and cows and wildlife are amazing. Too bad about the bribe. That would upset me too. Rude people unfortunately are everywhere. There is so much positive in this vlog that puts that rude person to shame.
Hard to believe no rain in 8 years. Sorry you had a rough time at the border. It shows good and bad in everyone. Another great post and stay staff and Crusoe is growing fast.
Hi David, Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. yesterday Crusoe crawled for the first time!! It’s all about discovery for him now and we can’t stop him!! 👍🙏🌍
I remember when visiting family in Greyton ( Western Cape in SA) they had an infestation of crickets! We had to put the windscreen wipers on while driving. It was raining Crickets! The put powder around our door to our room at the Lodge. Had to check under our pillows and in the shower too!
Hi Sheila, great to hear from you! We hope you are enjoying them! This Sunday we are in a Ghost town, so look out for that one too!! Thanks so much for watching friend! 🙏👍☺️
What a stunning video, sunset over the canyon was beautiful! Love the drone shots too! Truly appreciate the cattle farmers hard work to provide a healthy life for the cattle and quality food for the region. Great video!! ~Cara 😊
Hi John and Cara, great to hear from you. It’s a bit of a different one this week, but like you we were really taken in by the extraordinary hard work that the farmers in Namibia do. What a wonderful start to an epic country it has been. Thanks so much for watching and taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🚐
Hi Ana, Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. Crusoe is loving the adventure. We are all having so much fun. Thanks so much for taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🌍
Thanks for watching Natalie!! Great to hear from you. Namibia is an amazing adventure we are loving it!! Arizona is a must visit for us, perhaps later in 2022. Thanks so much for taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🚐
Thanks Todd, it really is a beautiful country. Lots of adventures to come, I think we will be here for quite a while longer. 😃🙏❤️ Thanks for watching friend.
Being South African i have really enjoyed watching you drive through Lesotha and Namibia although i have never been there. I am in East London on tbe Wild Coast in the Eastern Cape.
Are those grasshoppers? 🦗 If so, they destroy everything green! 🥺 Yes! A car park under solar panels!!!! So great! Wow! What an interesting wonderful view!
thanks for these amazing videos of my country, it is "fantasties" . it is so amazing to see one's country through the lens of someone else. I enjoyed your shopping trip buying Mrs Balls. next time you come to S.A. take a trip to the Garden Route. The Augrabies waterfall was amazing this year. take care.
Hi 79bridsong! Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. We will almost certainly be back in SA and the Garden Route is high on the todo list! Thanks so much for taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🇿🇦❤️
Fabulous! So much of that incredible landscape looks like Arizona, where I used to live, truly special to get to follow along on your remarkable adventures! thank you xx
Hi Anouk! Great to hear from you, thanks for watching again this week friend. Arizona is high on our must see list, perhaps in 2022 we head that way. Thanks so much for taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🌍
Wonderful Tara, John and Crusoe, loving catching up with you. So enjoying great videos.. Loved the crickets..not quite the Ashes, Brits vs Ozzies!!!..Love Jenny. Northampton.
Thank you Siestanomads! Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. Thanks so much for taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🚐.
I just love your videos! Yes.. border crossings can indeed be a pain but so worth it when you finally get through. Namibia is one African country I have never been to so I am loving your narrative and filming. Stay safe and I can't wait for the next one.
Hi Denise, Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. we are loving Namibia, fingers crossed you can visit one day. Lots of adventures waiting, we are just editing next weeks video…. Ghost towns!!! Thanks so much for taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🚐.
Hi Peter, Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. it certainly is a terrific adventure. Africa is proving an excellent place to drive and explore. Thanks so much for taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🌍
I feel like each week i am going to learn so many new things during your travels. What a fantastic adventure you are on. The roads looks absolutely empty and the sunset over the canon looked amazing, it looked like you had the whole place to yourselves.
Hi Lucy! Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. Namibia has been a wonderful adventure so far and we are feeling very blessed, not to many people out here traveling just yet, so we almost have the place to our selves. Lots more adventures to come. 👍👍🌍
As always a stunning informative video with absolutely amazing and beautiful scenery. I have had first hand experience of having to bribe officials in Africa to be able to get about, Sierra Leon and Senegal two of the worst for me, as you said frustrating and annoying to say the least. Looking forward to next week, keep smiling and be safe!!
Hi Dave, we hear you friend. Sierra Leon especially tricky place. John has had some experience there too, hectic! Sounds like you have seen a bit of the continent. Do you have a favourite African country? See you next Sunday!
Beautiful scenery and a superbly put together film. My only time at the canyon was in August 1984, where we stayed at Ai-Ais Springs. In those days, Namibia was called South West Africa and there was no border post when entering from South Africa either by air or by road. If you get any rain on your travels, you might see a range of Palearctic migrant birds on the telegraph wires as you head north in Namibia. I can recommend that you try a tafel beer! Drive safely on those dirt roads.
Thanks Hugh for sharing such amazing memories, we love hearing them and we hope you see some familiar scenes in our videos as we make our way north! Have a superb week and we will see you next Sunday 😊 ☀️
I'm so enjoying travelling along with you all. I've only ever been to Zanzibar and were pulled over several times by the police but i think our driver had already paid his bribes to be able to run his business! Africa is such a vast and varied continent and you don't really get that impression from watching wildlife programmes! Thanks guys!
Hi Claire! Zanzibar, wow!! That’s such a cool Island. I bet you have great memories of your time there (except for the police perhaps!). Thanks so much for watching and taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🚐.
Goodness... the drive thru Namibia looks like the drive thru Kansas (USA)... so much flatness. There's a city on the eastern border and one on the western border, not much in between. Very straight roads, there was corn on one side of the road and soybeans on the other. We'd get excited if we saw some cows because they were something taller than soybeans. Eventually we saw the Rockie Mountains in the distance, they looked like bumps. The closer you got, the bigger they got. Beautiful, here the Grand Canyon is spectacular... the multiple layers of colorful rocks. As usual, it's fun to follow along. If someone tried to solicit a bribe at the Canadian border, you could record the badge number and turn the person in. Aggravating, but if that is the only bump in your travels, you will have been blessed. Crusoe is growing so fast, he is a very happy boy.
Hi Cathy! Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. Kansas! Now there is a place we must visit one day soon. The Rockies are stuff of legends and the Grand Canyon, we can’t wait. Thanks so much for taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏❤️
Fish river Canyon just got added to my bucket list. What an adventure you are on, and seeing familiar sights in South Africa makes me a little home sick. You gotta have Mrs Balls, it's a staple I'm my pantry still, thank goodness Tesco always have it in stock. Safe travels Newbys and can wait to keep following you in this african adventure. Feeling inspired.
Hi Elaine, Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. Africa will. Retain my inspire us all, what a wonderful continent. Your home is SA? We truly loved our time there and will be back. So much to see on this adventure. Mrs Balls!!! Yes please!! Thanks so much for taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🌍
Marvellous, guys! The Namibian canyon? Wow..breathtaking..never though Namibia has this geographical feature! I omnly know Namib Desert! LOL.. thx so much for opening our eyes :) Love the shopping trip in the RSA supermarket. Bless Crusoe..happy as larry in the shopping trolley. and he's asleep at the back of your camper Hilux.. too cute! Those tiny feet!!! xxx p/s sad really to know about bribes etc..unfortunately as you know it does happen all over the world. Although doesn't mean is right! I too hate this as well! Anyway looks like you all are still enjoying your adventure. That's the main thing XXX
Hi MakLeemah! Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. Yes Namibia is a hugely surprising adventure, we are loving it. Crusoe is having such a great time, it doesn’t really matter where he is to be honest, the shops or the desert!!! Thanks so much for watching and taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🌍❤️
Hi 👋 loved every minute of your adventure wow the views over the canyon ❤️breathtaking ❤️and the grass hoppers brilliant video of that Jon , always learning from you guys feel like I’m on a history channel when we are with you , being vegan 🌱 myself it was so nice to hear about the love and compassion from the farmer for his cows 🐮 and his sustainable ethos, was that an expensive shop ? You didn’t seem to have lot … loved the apartments blocks for the little birds 🐦😊love hugs and kindness to you and lots of love and cuddles to little legs who is getting more chilled and entertaining every Sunday 🥰see you guys Sunday stay safe xx
Hi Julia! Great to hear from you friend, its been quite a week! a surprise visit almost, certainly one we had not expected at the farm. The shopping was limited, just because we were a bit worried about having it taken off us when we crossed the border to Namibia. Crusoe is growing and become more and more curious. This week the little man crawled for the first time. Now we can’t stop him!! Thanks so much for watching and taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🌍❤️
Another amazing drive.the border crossing before Namibia was not good I hate things like that.The crickets are a real pet hate of mine.and the drive in Namibia was long bur the view at the end was fantastic.as normal looking forward to next Sunday vlog.keep up the good work.well really enjoying seeing different places and such a amazing continent.
Hi Lee, great to hear from you friend. That border crossing was indeed really annoying, we are the same there. The crickets were in such huge numbers it was difficult not to be amazed by them. Beautiful drive though. Thanks so much for watching and taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🚐.
Hi Darryl! Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. The wife is always the boss! 😉 thanks so much for taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🚐
Well what a world we live in sorry that you came across some cranky border control people. Part of the experience to remember I guess. It sure does look so very dry and hot in Namibia , Sounds like it’s very hot as well. Look forward to next weeks show. Take care. Kind wishes from Australia Cheryl
Thanks so much Cheryl, you’re right it’s all part of the experience and we’re loving all the ups and downs. It is very hot here but Crusoe seems to be coping well which is great. Thanks for being here and for writing to us, it’s always so wonderful to hear from you and we hope life is sunny and happy down under! Xx
Hi guys :) Yes, there is room to breathe. Wild straight roads and hot sun. Clearly the taste of adventure in the air :) Question: Where would you get help if something happened? Let's keep up the pace :)
Hello friend! Yes, there is certainly plenty of space here between us and the next folk, but thankfully we’ve never felt so remote that help wouldn’t be nearby if we needed it which is reassuring with Crusoe onboard. Thanks for being here and for writing to us, always great to hear from you. Have a happy week and we will see you on Sunday! ☀️ 😊
Thank you Anna! Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. Thanks so much for taking this journey with us, your support is so very much appreciated! 👍🙏🚐.
Seeing those crickets reminds me of the hatching of mayflies in the Northeast USA. You'd have to hold your breath just to pump gas. Mayflies aren't smart enough to get out of the way, I think they only live for a day, then they die. Wasn't a pleasant aroma.
@@TheNewbys The operative word here is May. I would avoid the northeast for all of May beginning of June. Somewhere in the archives of Queen Elizabeth's visit to Canada, it shows the Royal family having to deal with midges, may want to do your homework. Again, I love watching your channel.
@@TheNewbys they have had a devastating impact on farmers in southern Africa recently swarms of millions wiped out whole fields of crops. Thanks for the videos liking the content so far keep it up.

Hi Bev! Loads of bugs! That’s Africa for you. We were surprised that they got out of the way of the truck though, very smart. Thanks again for watching. 👍
Wifey says; fun crickets. I say; love people like André that take care of his cows! Cudos to him!
Hey Meinart, how are you both? Crickets were crazy and Andre was a bit of a rock star to be honest. Great week of travel. Thanks as always for travelling with us friend. 👍❤️🌍

Beer and a sunset? That’s a bit of us! 😍
I’d have had to get out and film those crickets too 😂
Nice one Profs! Not sure you would get a Peroni out here though!! 😂😂🌍
Awesome canyon. The crickets, birds and cows and wildlife are amazing. Too bad about the bribe. That would upset me too. Rude people unfortunately are everywhere. There is so much positive in this vlog that puts that rude person to shame.

Hey Felix!! Got lots of drone footage, but the drone is just about dead now, Namib dust has done it in!!! GOOOoooooOoOOOO Max!!
Hi guys :) Yes, there is room to breathe. Wild straight roads and hot sun. Clearly the taste of adventure in the air :)
Question: Where would you get help if something happened?
Let's keep up the pace :)
Hello friend! Yes, there is certainly plenty of space here between us and the next folk, but thankfully we’ve never felt so remote that help wouldn’t be nearby if we needed it which is reassuring with Crusoe onboard. Thanks for being here and for writing to us, always great to hear from you. Have a happy week and we will see you on Sunday! ☀️ 😊

An amazing journey despite the crickets...I wonder if people eat them...like they do in Mexico ?
Thank you for your comments friend.
Seeing those crickets reminds me of the hatching of mayflies in the Northeast USA. You'd have to hold your breath just to pump gas. Mayflies aren't smart enough to get out of the way, I think they only live for a day, then they die. Wasn't a pleasant aroma.
Yuck!!! Mayflies, another phenomenon that we will need to see when we get to the states. Thanks as always for watching friend. 👍❤️🌍
@@TheNewbys The operative word here is May. I would avoid the northeast for all of May beginning of June. Somewhere in the archives of Queen Elizabeth's visit to Canada, it shows the Royal family having to deal with midges, may want to do your homework. Again, I love watching your channel.
Good tips Cathy, thank you!!
Hello, Kindly Can you tell me which is the safest countries to visit in africa??

HAVING FUN, EH?
Hey Bill!! Lots of fun!! How are you this week? Plans going well and life good?! ❤️🌍👍
@@TheNewbys Been watching Jack Vale on you tube laughing my head off!!!
@@TheNewbys It's too cold. Do not like cold weather but it is what it is...Watching those funny Jack videos with him farting in Wal Mart.
Stay safe, stay warm Bill. ☀️we will check Jack out 👍
There are hundreds of Jack Vale videos...th-cam.com/video/DJK0XDwCwgU/w-d-xo.html
When you edit your videos could you please make any music very soft, many people make the sound of music louder than the speech which spoils it. Ta.
Thanks Carol! Good advice. Great to hear from you, thanks for watching friend. 👍🙏
Crickets or locusts?
Good question!! Hmmmm 🤔🤔
@@TheNewbys locusts have a walking/jumping stage before they get airborn.
Not crickets it's grass hoppers they doing a lot of damage for the farmers eat all the fields
Ah thanks for sharing friend ❤️😊
@@TheNewbys 💕💕💕
its actually grass hoppers not crickets
Thanks Bernard 😊🙏🏼❤️
Those crickets are actually a plague of locusts. Wipe them out they are a pest destroying crops.
Thanks for that info Garry, there sure were a lot of them!
@@TheNewbys they have had a devastating impact on farmers in southern Africa recently swarms of millions wiped out whole fields of crops. Thanks for the videos liking the content so far keep it up.
