Sand dunes at Sossusvlei29/10/05 - Namib desert
Its Hot - Its Dusty - Its Hot!
We're definately in a desert. Arrived at our Desert Camp - completely in the middle of nowhere.
The camp is fantastic with an outside loo where you can do your business while star gazing.
Peter Woolfe (real name) took us on a night game drive where we saw springboks, oryxs and other desert animals and birds. It was great! Two nights here and then off to the sand dunes.

Blimey those sand dunes are big and sandy ... less so now given the amount taken away in our boots. Climbed dune no. 45 and then a 4WD into barren desert for a scorching walk. Big daddy's the highest sand dune at 340m. At 40c it was too hot to climb it.

It's not fair...
...I'm stuck in London and it's p***ing down with rain, and you're having a fantastic time. I'm going to spend the next two hours sulking! Your photos look stunning. More please! But how is Emily coping with all this outside living? M
