Fuck it's hot!
Reached boiling point the last couple of days in the desert! Temps well up in the 40s and the wind is hot, so even the shade was relentless.

Too hot to do anything but try and rest in the shade, which was fine cause we had been up early to watch the ...

Sunset over Dune 45
... amp; Namibia (even South Africa), I must say that towns are absolutely nothing special... most of the times it’s just one street with a few local shops around, oh, and a Bank, but there’s absolutely nothing to visit like in Europe. The only place we visited was the supermarket, where we got welcomed with the sign: "park at your own risk".
