dash8ing: Sedia are not backpackers, it is a lodge/hotel with a camp site. You are right to caution people on these matters. Unfortunately The Bridge doesn't welcome pilots long stay. Sure, until you find something else, and, it is a.great place. They want tourists who will buy their tours. As for your 24/7 (only on the 24th July
) security. We had someone try to break into our tent there. Security were asleep. Bad choice of target, a Botswana resident, very light sleeper, ex-military with a gun, big mistake
Also if you do not have transport it is a long way from the road. I still think Sedia is a good place despite security problems. Great facilites and on the road. Come on, this is Africa. Even at home 40 km out of town I sleep with a gun under the bed. Just secure your valuables and kill any b@start who tries to nick them. Easy
