Swakopmund, Namibia

We spent the last three days in a town on the coast of Namibia called Swakopmund. It is a little town of about 45,000 people that borders sand dunes on one side and the ocean on another. It is quite beautiful here and the architecture of the town has a lot of German influence. To be quite honest it feels more like we are in Europe than Africa. We got to stay in a hostel while we were here, which meant REAL BEDS! I was beginning to get tired of sleeping on the ground in a tent. While we were here we got to go four wheeling in the sand dunes for a couple of hours, which was totally awesome. We were also supposed to do sky diving but the plane was out of service, so we are going to try to do it in a week when we are in South Africa.
