Snakes!

I had my first snake encounter last night. He was 10 m long and…and…ok, maybe only 1,5 m, but that’s big enough for me. I don’t know what kind it was and I didn’t linger to ask him. When I noticed him he was only 1 m from my foot but already on his way down his hole, I guess right now he is telling his family about his shirumbo (white person) encounter he had last night. There are several deadly venomous snakes in Namibia; the Black Mamba (for which there is no anti venom) is probably the most famous. Well, that's all I wanted to tell you, mom.
