SUN 14  – At Swakopmund

Forwent a boat cruise (water looked a bit rough and cold) and guided desert tour (had a few already) instead drive the route suggest in the itinerary provided with the car. First checked out the local beaches in a cold 14deg wet fog then off to the National Park desert - hopefully warm sunny - and it didn't disappoint.   Returned early afternoon to a very pleasant Swakopmund; 19deg calm and sunny. Visited local aquarium, museum and other places on the map that could have been of interest. 

All prices seem to be about half what we pay.

The local road code has some differences:- 
"Stop" mean slow down enough to ensure there is no one else at the intersection.
If another driver was slowing at his "stop" before you - then he has right of way.
Driving 10 - 20kmh faster than the speed limit common and often expected, otherwise the traffic behind piles up and they try to overtake -  On the gravel - this is not good.  However, the traffic is light and the dirt roads nearly twice the width of NZ gravel roads, but hey are just as dusty.  
"Stop/go" men at road works wave red flags at you. If you do it wrong, then they wave the flag even more.
