Opuwo

Our cycling target has been reached! We’re in Opuwo, finally a real African town. It’s great to see the Himba people looking at us looking at them, they’re impressive!

From here on we’re going even more on the tourist trail: visting Epupa falls and Etosha national park. This does not mean the cycling days are over though, and we’re still elegible for spotting elefants and lions in the wild. We’re sleeping with a gasoline burner at hand….when we’re not sleeping in a luxury resort with a pool.

Swakop

Just a few pictures from the initiation: Windhoek to Swakop.
As the weather is quite warm, we’ve shifted out schedule to riding in the early morning and in the evening time, which is very impressive under almost-full moon.

Swakopmund itself is a strange little town, like a desolate shopping mall surrounded by dunes. in the last 50 kilometers the temperature has dropped about 10-15 degrees, and it’s quite chilly here.
