Pizza

We returned to the camp and prepared for the evening, which was pizza. There was an outdoor pizza oven and we had pizza doughs made for us with our chosen toppings. We took it in turns to cook them ourselves two at a time, careful they don't burn to a crisp. We did a decent job. With it being winter down here in the southern hemisphere it quickly cooled once the sun went down but not so much that it was unbearable, so we hung around the warm oven and chatted with our new friends. We still couldn't believe how short a time we'd been here and how much we'd done. Our tranquility was briefly interrupted buy a cricket slowly moving across the ground and eventually climbing on to the chair I was sitting in, shocking me somewhat. I can't say we've seen many insects but these are clearly the most common. They are huge and ugly, but fortunately very slow moving. The pizzas washed down with beer purchased at the bar at the equivalent of about £1 a bottle. There are two main varieties here: Taffel and Windheok. The former is superior - the latter is cheaper. With our first day here over we all walk back together in the dark to the campsite and navigate around our tents with our phone lights and a small LED lantern. It was cold getting into our beds but warmed up quickly.
