LISA:
We got up fairly early to watch the sun rise. It was a tad bit disappointing, since it was pretty much it’s normal old bright yellow self by the time it came up over the mountains. But, nevertheless, it was our last African sunrise in the desert. Boo and bullfrogs. We had a very tasty breakfast of sausage and soft-boiled eggs and potatoes and toast and mmm it was good. We packed up for the last time, and started the trek to Windhoek. We got there by early afternoon, and found one of the only places left in the whole city with available space. Dad and Mom got a double and the kids got a dorm with another lady. We needed Mom & Dad’s room for space to pack up all of our junk, since we decided not to try to jam all of our possessions into the dorm with that poor woman. So we unloaded everything from Tau’s filthy body and Dad took him to get him an extreme makeover at the local “Car Bath.” Some of us took a dip in the pool. It was slightly more conducive to swimming than the Okavango River Lodge pool, which was nice, although the sauna we ran into afterwards still felt good. We kind of started packing a little, but soon gave up when we realized how hungry we were. Since we pretty much had no food left besides some ketchup and chicken pot pie, we showered and started driving around looking for places to eat. Tau was a whole new beast, let me tell ya. We found this Chinese place that was really really great with one of those tables where the center spins. We got several dishes and spun them around for all to share. It was delicioso, although it definitely wasn’t the best thing for my screwed up stomach…
