CAMPFIRE


CAMPFIRE
Night time in the desert is very cold, it's a stark difference to the heat of the day. The night sky is beautifully lit up with countless stars. Well wrapped and drinking tea around the fire it was easy to while away a few hours staring up.

VIEW OVER CAMP & BEYOND
Myself and Alvina climbed a big rock outcrop to watch sunset. Our campsite is in the foreground and just over the hill beyond is the 'Forbidden Zone'. Diamonds are found here and therefore no one is allowed.

The scenery in Namibia is ever changing, 5 minutes down the road and you're looking at something completely different.

Drive to Aus through the desert.
















Pitched tents at Klein Aus Vista. Alvina and myself climbed a big rock to watch sunset over the desert.


Temperature dropped dramatically from the heat of the day. Beautiful view of the stars though.
