Vancouver to London to Johannesburg to Windhoek

24 hrs day time, three planes, enough to make me sick of chicken
After all these, finally get to Namibia. First morNing in Namibia, birds singing and busy building nests, don't see that too often anymore.

First time in africa, first time in south atmosphere, first time travelling solo.

Enjoy it when it lasts.

A french lady from swiss land, booked a trip a few years ago with her husband but he died before the trip. Then she booked with her friend for this year and he also died. She decided to come to the trip on her own. Life is too short to enjoy.

Oryx meat

Aug 30, 2015 etotha national park
Open game drive, saw lions, elephants, zebra, giraffes, Oryx, Rhino, oschrid, lots of Springboks, different kinds of birds.
Giraffes have pretty big and pure eyes, elephants are stupid cute, lions are the kings of safari.

Saw some pretty red chest birds and a white head bird caught delicious insects for breakfast before we leave etosha park, very happy with that.
There are some clouds today, they all look like animals to me now 😄. Animal mood

从swoamp出发去walvis bay 的路上，一边是沙漠，一边是大西洋 还看到了Flamingo, 脑袋呆在沼泽里，两条细长的腿忙着刨土找吃的，就像是在跳芭蕾舞，可爱至极。

Sossusvlei dunes, sesriem canyon
Climbed up the breathtaking Dune 45, it was so windy and i felt like i could be blew away anytime, got sand all over my face, but i did it, keep encouraging myself, set a goal and go for it.
I read a story about a lady could not finish swimming across some ocean because it was cloudy and she could not see where she is going. She gave up about half a mile away from yhe destination. I know exactly how she feels the moment i saw where my destination is - on top of the Dune, slowly but surely, moving ahead.

Milky way, have never seen so many stars in my life, tons and tons stars, amazing beautiful, first time seeing my own Scorpio stars, head, two claws, body with a long tail.
Got three stones from Canyon, one with layers of granite in it, harry says bring it home, will bring good luck.

On the way to fish river Canyon
Cliff taught me some basic photography techniques, shutter speed, aperture, ISO. Three items allow different amout of light to come through, therefore bringing out various focuses.

Cook island
Bolivia

Canoeing
The two kind couples came and tied my boat to theirs and it made my canoeing much easier.

You have no reason not to be confident. You ve completed University degree in four years, have a good job, very patient, flew half a world to travel on your own, not that many ppl have done that. Be proud of yourself be confident with yourself. Nothing is perfect and it's ok to be not perfect.
