Windhoek

We headed north from Makopong and spent the night in Kang.

Then we hitched across the border with some truck drivers. We had to hide at police checkpoints a few times, but also had a good conversation with the truck driver about HIV for a few hours.

Most things were closed because it was between Christmas and New Years, and the city was deserted because people went elsewhere for the holidays.  We walked around the city for a few hours, winding up on the edge where we got a beautiful view. 

It honestly reminds me a little bit of a European city, with the architecture and the mountains in the background.

We found a field of flowers and attempted to reenact the Sound of Music.

Saw a cool lizard (for Kate).

And then got on a Combi to Swakupmund, where we braided Ashley's hair to pass the time.
