To reach Henties Bay we had to cross the Namib Desert. This is reputed to be one of the oldest in the world and I hoped our little Sirion car was tough enough to bounce its way across. This was no place to get marooned. As we approached the Atlantic coast the sky became overcast [...]

                                                                    
We stayed in Rundu for the next few days to catch our breath before heading south to the Etosha National Park and the coast.
