Such a contrast getting on the plane at Heathrow last night where they spent 30 mins deicing the wings to enable us to get away as the temperature plumetted again to getting off the plane in tropical Windhoek with the palm trees swaying and the oven furnace blasting out with added sauna level humidity. Welcome to Namibia!!
With the hire car rep slightly miffed that he had only one passenger to collect – i think he was expecting a horde of Parkers - he filled me in on the local weather threatening rain but not quite delivering yet and with the grey clouds rolling in to remind me of home.
Found Rivendell Guesthouse behind the security gates and barbed wire but strangely no hobbits or Gollum to greet me!!.
Dashed out for some cloud pics but only just made it as the clouds rolled in – hopefully a cloudless sky tomorrow as I set off for the desert dunes of the Namib- Nakluft at Sesriem
