Food. Game.

We've already been enjoying the best of Namibian food. yesterday we bought takeaway braai, which is a coal cooked BBQ, from a NETS student who is selling lunches to pay his fees. We have eaten German breads and flavoured hummuses, and tonight for dinner we cooked our own braai. You burn up a lot of wood first to make coals, and then spread the coals out and put the meat on the grill. We also cooked up our truffles in garlic salt and pepper, they tasted rather nicer than mushrooms, they are less watery. Probably will never eat truffles again, let alone piled on a plate with potato salad and lamb.

Tomorrow we are going up to Erindi which is a wildlife resort. Staying one night, and driving out at dawn tuesday to see animals. And apparently the food is gourmet and all you can eat. We're going to see another market on the way this is a wood carving market. All I really like are beaded geckos. I love beaded geckos. I think I need to buy more.

We were introduced to the card game Dominion today. It's one of those complicated to learn, involving to play games. I won the second game! I don't win many games usually.

Here is a photo of Yoda the cat, who half African wild cat half tabby cat, and keeps scratching her nose, so she is now wearing a cereal box collar.
