You are not in NZ now Bruce...

We went for a bit of walk to check up on a restaurant for dinner. Closed for the holiday unfortunately. Being Easter Sunday the city was very quiet and we were photographing a building when a couple of guys went past and said put those cameras away before someone steals them. Very disconcerting. It's such a shame that Namibia has begun to emulate SA in terms of tourist crime.  Not as bad; no car jackings; but tourists are targeted; handbags & cameras mainly.
Todays gift was finding a really amazing band playing at an outdoor café.
So we stopped for a drink to enjoy the music. The group, dad & 2 sons, were superb. I could have stayed much longer and would have liked a wine but we had to collect the rental car at 3pm so didn’t dare have alcohol.
Took over an hour & a half to sort out the truck; we had to check absolutely everything worked (even the windscreen squirter) plus the paperwork so now we are the temporary owners of a diesel 4x4 ute.
As part of the instructions we were told if anything happens (accident, unauthorised road block etc) to call the Police. So I asked what the number was in Namibia. It turns out there is no national number like 111; every town has its own Police phone number. Okaaay.

    Yes, this is me.
    Most  photogs prefer to be behind the camera and I'm no exception.
    So this pic is rather old having been taken at a Ceroc ball in 2012.
