We have made it down to Namibia which is a truly stunning country. For starters, they speak English. Secondly, rather than badly potholed roads with burnt out trucks littering the side, the roads here are either tarred or very well maintained gravel. Finally it is just a beautiful place with a mix of desert, plains and rugged mountains.
We made it over the border from Angola with a sense of relief. While nothing went seriously wrong during our time in Central Africa, it was always the hardest and most dangerous part of our trip so we are both happy to have it behind us.
Our first stop in Namibia was Etosha, a park that is so rich in wildlife that at one waterhole we saw more game than in all the other parks we have visited put together. It was beautiful.
