Swakopmund! and other pictures.

Photos from the Komku End-Of-Year trip to Swakopmund on the gorgeous coast of Namibia, smack dab in the middle of the Namib Desert. This is true desert, nothing but sand and a few dark spots that are vaguely identifiable as plants. We saw the famed dunes, but I didn't get any good pictures. It just means I'll have to go back...

Driving into Swakop.

The gorgeous, minimalist coastline. The sea is full of life, however - kelp and seaweed and jellyfish rolled in and out with the tides of this somewhat chilly corner of the Atlantic.

Displaying the aforementioned kelp...

An oasis en route to Swakopmund.

NOT in Swakopmund: voting at the Huiku Trust Annual General Meeting, for the new board members.

One last Kalahari Sky... and now I'm off to Victoria for Christmas! That's right, on Sunday I'll be flying home to spend my first Christmas at home for the past 3 years. From sand and swimsuits to mist-drenched evergreen rainforests, and possibly a bit of snow. Next update from Canada (or perhaps from the airport).
