The pan is made of dried Salz-/Sandschlamm and underneath is still soft. It can happen that you break and then übelst stuck. Kubu In Iceland we camped right under a Baobab.

The camp is extremely expensive (100 Pula / person) and has nothing (outdoor toilet, no water or otherwise as Bush Camp). Unfortunately, too many hats flying, so the decision is made quickly, just go to-morrow.
