Windhoek Show with Hanna and Agnes

Today I took Hanna and her friend Agnes to the Windhoek Industrial and Agricultural Show (WIAS), more known as just “the Windhoek Show”. The first show was held in 1899 and it is an annual event since 1966. It is the biggest industrial and agricultural exhibition in Namibia, attracting almost 100,000 visitors per year. (Wikipedia)
