Weekend in Swakopmund


Standing on the Swakop Pier, looking at the coastline ... America?


The dunes around Swakopmund get more impressive as you travel further inland


Our Easter Weekend skydiving crew (from left to right: Betsy, Rachel, Amanda, me and Juice)


We make this look good...


Rachel and me anxiously waiting to jump out of a perfectly good plane


A view from 10,000 feet up


Coming in for a landing!



Kayaking in Walvis Bay


Amazing...


Amanda and me kayaking near one of two seal colonies. There were hundreds sunbathing on the shore, but loads ventured right up to our kayak!


The "lesser" flamingos populating Walvis

FYI, I just severed a carotid artery looking at these pictures, sitting in my cubicle, across from where you used to sit before your life got way more exciting.
