Leaving Namibia (12-19)

Sunday afternoon I took the shuttle back to Windhoek and stayed at the same guesthouse with my little cottage and great view.Since this was my last day alone, I decided to hang out at the guesthouse all day. Then I remembered that there is a botanical garden I hadn’t been to; so I had a taxi take me there. Even though it is very dry and many of the plants are dried out, I enjoyed walking along the trails for 1.5 hours. 

I was especially attracted to the small leaves on trees, 

the bottle trees, 

and plants that are in the grape family but one would never guess it.

 It was a pleasant outing for the last day of my Namibia holiday.

The time to leave Namibia has finally come. After traveling for 2.5 weeks and seeing Fish River Canyon and Sossuvlei as well as the desert in Aus and Swakopmund, I am ready to leave the country. This holiday was like a dream come true, and now it’s time to move on. I decided to see more of Africa before leaving the continent. I’ll join a truck tour like the one I did in South Africa in May for two weeks to go to Botswana, Victoria Falls, and Malawi. Then I’m off to Ethiopia, Egypt, and Morocco.
