Namibia 17th Nov - 3rd Dec 2017

After visiting South Africa last November I was off to Namibia this year - another country on my list I had wanted to visit for many years.
Originally I was just to go next year but with actual summer plans falling through and me finding a suitable round trip with the travel company Gebeco (part of TUI) at rather short notice I was off to Namibia on 17th November 2017 for full two weeks in the country.  

Flight was an overnight one from Frankfurt to Windhoek with Namibia's state airline Air Namibia.

Some people moaned about the plane, I was fine with it but I was also lucky as I had a window seat plus an empty aisle seat next to me so I could stretch out decently.
Too bad only I had this most annoying couple in front of me who could not shut the f*** up for most of the flight (woman was obviously slightly scared of flying so she kept her partner awake most of the flight) so sleep was little.

But as I was on vacation, it did not bother me as much as it would have normally.
