Hi Lou,

Most of the people who took some time to answer have had an experience =
of Namibia.
... and as you can read it , the answers are pretty different.
By the way, to be honest I didn't know about the school holidays !
You know, I bought the first flight tiket I found at a reasonable price =
... the day after I was said that .... :-))

Do you think that it will be very crowded ?

Anyway, we will see ... my first priority is to find a vehicle, and so =
far I didn't yet get one.

Pino.
