Wild
Trails in Namib Desert
This trip was conducted in 2008 as an Educational Tour with
Rhodes Park School pupils in August. We took a road trip, through The Caprive Strip.
Along the way, the vegetation type gradually transformed from a type Savanna
Grassland of scattered trees and tall grass into brown tuft grasses and
thorny-semi arid shrubs of the Kalahari-Nambib Desert.
But first we had to go to Swakopowund, which is on the coast
of Namibia and washed by the Indian Ocean. We arrived in the evening and
checked in the Municipal Bungalows.
Before dinner at 7pm, we decided to go to the se coast and
view the spectacular view of the breaking sea waves. Being from a
landlocked-locked country, Zambia such a view as a rare sight. All I could say
was AWESOME!
