Travel Planning: Namibia

I’ve started putting some thought into my next adventure and Namibia will definitely play a part. A desert full of dead trees that can’t decay due to the total lack of moisture, sand-dune boarding, a hot air balloon ride across the shifting sands, the morning mist rolling onto the shore where the desert meets the Atlantic and desert wildlife including elephants, lions, and ostriches.

Yup, I’ll have some of that, please.

How can we afford this, you may ask? I’m still working on that. One thing’s for sure, I can’t pay for one of the packaged multi-day tours that cost a fortune. Instead, we’ll be hopping on buses to find our way around the country. I think our two bases will be the capital Windhoek (a hub for buses into and out of Namibia as well as around the country) and Swakopmund (the Namibian holiday town and activity center on the coast).

Whatever happens, it’ll be an adventure.

Today’s Photo: The last of the boathouse

This is the last of my shots of the peaceful marina on Lake Ontario in Niagara-on-the-Lake. The sunset lingered for a long time and after rushing around trying to find a nice view that didn’t involve scaling a fence I decided on this one. Unfortunately, there was still a fence in the way. I tried every single gate to see if one was unlocked but didn’t have any luck. Eventually, I hoisted my camera, tripod and all, above my head and wedged it into the chain links of the fence. I let it stop shaking about and used my cable release to fire off 3 bracketed images.

  1. I’m gone to inform my little brother, that he should also pay a visit this
    webpage on regular basis to get updated from newest information.

  2. This is the perfect site for everyone who hopes to understand this topic.

    You realize so much its almost tough to argue with you (not that I really
    would want to…HaHa). You certainly put a fresh spin on a subject that has been discussed for years.
    Excellent stuff, just wonderful!

  3. My family members all the time say that I am wasting my time
    here at web, but I know I am getting experience everyday by reading such fastidious articles.

  4. No wonder young people’s happiness scores have plummeted.The pandemic and proliferation of technology have only exacerbated a growing phenomenon of rising maltreatment and decreased quality of life for younger people.エロ ラブドール
