After we got back on board ship yesterday we were entertained by the Mascato Youth Choir from Namibia (https://www.facebook.com/mascatoyouthchoir.admin/) an inspiring performance from a vibrant and talented group of young African voices.

Dune 7

20 December 2018

A day at sea is giving me a chance to catch up with posts.

They saved the best until nearly last. We had a super day yesterday when the ship berthed in Walvis Bay, Namibia. Following are a few snaps from Dune 7 which is 5km wide and 30km long. That's a lot of sand!
