Namibia. Where Mother Nature reigns.: When in doubt. Twyfelfontein.

After visiting the Sesfontein Fort we continue south for our next stop at Twijfelfontein (doubtful Spring). The scenery is beautiful and we stop a few times to take pictures and to enjoy the vastness and beautiful colours.

When arriving in Twijfelfontein, we first stop at the Damara Living Museum for a guided tour on how the Damaras used to live. All ´actors´ are lying around in the shade until it´s their turn to give us a damara and english version of damara medicine, hunting, jewelry making and what ever kept them busy back at the time when they lived their own kind of lives.

Playing the game which we got to know as Bao when we visited Zanzibar a few years ago.

After the staged Damara experience we go do what we came her for. Visiting the Heritage Site to see the Rock Art which Twyfelfontein is famous for. With our guide Silvia, who speaks English beautifully, and a German couple, we walk the 45 minute route past all the most important drawings, just a small part of this area which hosts Africa's greatest concentration of rock art.

Having spent less time than we expected at the heritage site, we also get to visit the Organ Pipes - a small gorge with angular columns of dolorite rock.

And Burnt Mountain which apparently one should see early in the morning or late in the afternoon when the sun turns it into fire mountain! Seeing the mountain too early in the afternoon, makes it far less spectacular.

Checking in at the Aba-Huab Community Campsite which clearly is not what it used to be, we get a tour of the site and are told about the restaurant upstairs where the chef can prepare what ever we ask for! Something to look forward to since we've been living on pasta for a great deal of the past week. But then, when asking to get a look at the menu, reality kicks in as we are told that tonight is the chef's night off and no food can be served! Should have known better! We are in a remote part of the world after all!
