Ok, Let's return to the story of Namibia. After heading north we made it to Ondongwa. Upon arriving at the hotel we found the pastors from our sister churches waiting to bring us to their homes. I was supposed to travel with Pastor Pieters but he was unable to make the trip north with us so I went to Eembaxu with Pastor Ruusa and Teopaulina, both of Eembaxu. Teopaulina had a beautiful red truck and I threw my duffle into the back and then asked about bringing my camera bag with me into the cab. It was then that Pastor Ruusa informed me there was only room for two people in the truck and that I would be riding in the back. You know, I travel in Africa looking for adventure and here it was. I quickly grabbed a jacket and a small pillow I travel with to sit on, put a hat on my head, slathered on some sunblock and off we went, in what direction I do not know, Eembaxu does not make any map. I will say I loved driving in the back of the truck. It brought back memories of being a kid riding in my dad's pick up, this was in the days before safety concerns.
This was what I saw from my spot in the truck
This was just one little glimpse of the countryside I saw as we drove for around 2 hours through the rural areas of northern Namibia
Thankfully someone snapped a picture of me as we headed off for Eembaxu.
