Since the Thursday 2nd June was Ascension Day, the childrens' school had 'worked' the previous Saturday the Friday was free and lent itself for a long weekend in Swakop. It was also Mutti Brock's 81st birthday, another good reason to go there. Chris had taken a day's leave and Cathy is still on Sabbatical.
The Swakop river has just stopped flowing (since 21 March) and has deposited a lot of sand in the ocean, creating a delta. Tiger Reef has enough beach again!
The Swakoppoort Dam had spilled a bit taking some fish with it. This photo was taken near the 'Grosser Baum' where the Swakop had just stopped flowing on the surface, leaving the poor fish on the surface.
The desert is green!!! A real green sheen with Swakopmund in the background.
The Arandiskuppe with good grass cover right up to the rocks.
