We were hosted by Steve above on his farm Ongeama, south-west of Okahandja. Thanks a lot Steve!Ongeama03

Some of us arrived already on Friday to enjoy a marvellous sun-downer outside Steve’s home. Hanna and her friend Mushili found their own spot.

After the sun set we drove down to the camping area for dinner.

Everyone brought snacks for a very long lunch…

…that involved some serious singing of a number of Swedish Snaps-songs, for the occasion quickly translated into some sort of English.

The children found their own activities. Hanna and Mushili spent almost all day keeping this fire burning…

Saturday evening was a braii evening with people making new friends and later gathering around the fire-place. Des and Steve rounded up and we could all give them that big hand.Ongeama14

A long evening where most of the worlds problem were solved but there was also a lot of singing from countries around the world. Ever so nice!

After breakfast and packing I found the opportunity to do some very nice driving in the river bed.
