It's not like this at home!
How cool is this toilet? No roof , no floor, just a toilet sitting in the sand. And not just a toilet – a whole bathroom! We thought it might just be a pit toilet, but it flushed and everything.
We’ve seen lots of amusing signs in Namibia. It’s not often that you have to watch out for warthogs in the UK. We also loved this direction sign in the middle of the sand dunes.
Driving is also quite a different experience as well. For a start, and I think we’ve mentioned this before, the roads are very straight and very long. It is quite common, even on the main rods not to see another car for about 10 minutes. This doesn’t seem like very long, until you think about driving in the UK along a motorway at 75mph and imagine how many cars you’d pass! The other odd thing is the need for side lights during the day. A lot of people have their side lights on because it’s easier to identify them as a car in the mirages. When all you can see in the distance is a mirage and a vague blob, you’re very unsure if it’s a car, a person, an animal – or if it’s just your eyes deceiving you!
