Namibia

Arrived in Namibia 2 days ago. Today is the 16th. wow....I am exhausted!!
We have been busy, and driving alot the past few days...lets start at the begninng.
Left South Africa, drove and drove up up north to the border. All of us got through OK except for the 3 Nigerians on the team. Something happend with the visa's or something, and Namibia acctually dosn't like Nigerians coming in because they usually come in as criminals, so there was a huge thing. Ended up the nigerians had to camp out at the border while we went on to Windhoek, (the capital of Namibia) to sort this all out. The first night we stayed at a pretty nice hotel, well....it wasn't 'nice' but it was expensive....we had at least 5 beds and a shower!! So that was nice. However, we couldn't sleep because the misquitoes were so bad. We were fighting them off all night, and so at 4AM i finally got up and sat in the bathtub with my sheet around me and managed to kill off all the mosquitoes in the bathroom to sit quitely!! So that was nice I suppose....had a nice early start to my day!!
Oh my goodness.....Namibia is BEAUTIFUL!!!! I am falling in love with this country, I feel like i am now experiencing the real Africa....it is desert and the sky is HUGE and BLUE and the clouds are like real clouds!! They are flat on the bottom and fluffy on top, and i felt like i was in a cartoon, no joke!! Eveyone was laughing at me because i was excited about the 'real' looking clouds. and man, its just amazing, the place is goegrous...!!!!
So we arrived in Windhoek at 12:30AM. We had to stop along the way a few times to cool our engine down......i don't know what is wrong, but the radiator or something is blocked, and the water or something in the engine was boiling it was so hot, and so we used up all our drinking water to cool it down. This was at like, 10 at night. Soo took us a while, but the road isn't a busy road, even though its the main highway. We are staying at the YWAM base here in Namibia for a few nights....we got the visas sorted out today and the nigerians are on their way! Then we head off to the desert to do some stuff..haha.
Um so i am verry tired, i don't know what else i wanted to say excpet that the bugs here are like, oversized...they're huge!!! man....these locusts hit us when we were driving, and left huge marks on the windsheild..and big scary-looking weird things....i'll get a picture sometime up.
What else........i raelly love this place, its beautiful.
Update again later!!
