Last night we slept very well in our luxury safari tent. We had electric blankets so it was so nicely warm. We only woke up at 7h30; this is late for us because normally we wake up around 6h30 or 7h. We took a hot shower, packed our stuff and left on our way to Windhoek.
When we got at the border, we immediately saw that it was very calm. Everything went very fast and the people were very friendly. Before we knew it, we were in Namibia. In Namibia there is 1 hour difference. We are one hour ahead of South Africa (and Belgium).
The road to Windhoek (the Trans-Kalahari Highway) was amazing. The landscape of the Kalahari is beautiful and there were a lot of warthogs next to the road what we really enjoyed. Off course there were also a lot of cattle again.
Around 2h we arrived in Windhoek, the capital of Namibia. We went to the ‘Cardboard Box Backpackers’ where we booked a room for 2 nights. It’s a cosy and busy place with a nice bar. We put our stuff into our room and went for a walk in town. The centre of Windhoek is very close to the backpackers. It is Sunday so it was very calm in town and everything was closed. But we found out what we want to see and visit tomorrow. We ate dinner at Spur and walked back to the backpackers. We were just back before dark. In Namibia it is even dark sooner because the hour is different.
Tonight we will have a drink in the bar of our backpackers and go to bed early. Tomorrow we will discover the rest of Windhoek.
