Back from the unbelievable
beautiful Namib desert. One always think the dunes
are dead and the only purpose are for off road vehicles to play around. Not so! I stumbled across unbelievable rich historical places as we are filming a documentary on the Dorob National park. As all the sites and scenes are in the park one needs permits from the Ministry of Environment and Tourism. But I will over the next few days post some stories with pictures of petrified elephant tracks, several skeletons from the Topnaars, pottery and the pristine coastline of our beautiful Namibia.

| The only "legal" tracks we found in the desert. That of the few animals brave enough to survive in the Namib. |
 |
| The remains of a Tamarisk close to Dune 7. |
 |
| remains of a human bone, with pottery at one of the old Topnaar grave sites. The place can only be visited under the supervision of a professional tour operator. Herman Neethling Photo Adventures is a walking encyclopedia on the rich history. |

| Rossing mountain covered with a blanket of fog. |
 |
| Atlantic Ocean's richness will never be fully understood. |
