It is not the driver, it is not the truck, it is the road! Enjoy your African massage.

The first morning we left on our adventure, this was saying which we've come to hear on a daily basis. I never thought I'd ever get excited when I see a paved road but sometimes in life, it's the little things.  

After covering a lot of ground we finally found a decent sized town by the Ocean.  Swakopmund is a large port town for the export and import of goods to Namibia and surrounding landlocked countries.  It's like you're in a desert full of sand drifting right into the ocean.  In Swakomund we rented quads and ventured through the sand dunes.  Along the way, we waxed some sleds and bombed it down the biggest dune we could find.  It was incredibly fun although I swallowed a few pounds of sand.
