I write this post from Swakopmund, Namibia
its this little colonial desert town about 20 miles from Walvis Bay where the ship is docked. This town could have come straight out of Germany, language and all. The hostel we are staying at is called the Gruner Kraz and it is just a helarious situation all around. My slight German skills came in handy for communicating with one of our German roommates. Swakop definatly has a suprisingly rich party scene which made for an eventful night last night, the details of which I will keep to myself.
Namibia definatly has ruined the chances of me ever again having fun at the sleeping bear dunes in northern michigan. It would be like going on a merry go round after a day at Cedar Point. This place has mountain ranges of pictureesque sand dunes for as far as the eye can see. Its the desert like you would see on the National Geographic channel.
Id love to say more but I'm about to go off quadbiking and sand boarding in the desert for the day.

Sounds amazing. Have fun "sandboarding". I read somewhere it was suggested to wear high knee socks for this,but I can't remember why.
Have fun,

Thanks for your post Bob, sounds like a lot of fun! Who would have guessed that the desert would be as fun as so many of you are saying!
