Some places are as good as advertised.
As if THAT wasn’t enough, Namibia was a German colony until after WW 1, so there are many people of German decent here. So there’s strudel in the morning! This is Moose. He runs Solitaire, the only stop for 350 km between Sossusvlei and Walvis Bay. You buy gas when you can in Namibia, and definitely don’t pass up the strudel.
After that, you go through an area where it hasn’t rained in 350 years; that is, since the first white settlers came. The other memory card has some pictures, but Myung has that right now. Meanwhile, I uploaded a few pictures of some of the thousands of wild flamingos and fur seals along the coast near Walvis Bay.
This place reminds me of the Sinai, seemingly so lifeless on land, but obviously teeming in the water. The drive out to the seal place would make you think there is no life on the land. Yes yes, I know, the desert is full of life.
That’s what I’ve got uploaded. We’re in Swakopmund now and heading north. Petrol will be a problem for a while. Likely, internet access is doubtful. So I’ll talk to you later when I can. Until then, be well all of you.
