Luc, brilliant photos here. I especially like the intro pic. Swakopmund is of course well known here in Germany. Have a lovely Sunday.

Unusual architecture featured in your first tip. The sandstorm in your opening pic looked pretty daunting--hope it didn't follow you very far in your travels!

Luc, the picture of the sandstorm looks spectacular. It was an odd experience to find this German architecture and atmosphere in this corner of the world.

Wow, that's quite a sandstorm. A little bit of Germany in Southern Africa is funny to see. Great pics of the people.
