Your trip to Namibia begins as soon as you arrive!

Happy New Year readers!  We are up to 300+ hits! Wow and double Whoopee!
 
I have read some of the old blogs I have posted in 2012 and I can see that I am getting betterat being an amatuer blogger!  Email me:  jw.asheeke@gmail.com with comments on this blog.  Thanks to those who have sent in your opinions and topic suggestions. 
 
My New Year's Resolutions:
  • Do this blog once per week!
  • Lose 20 pounds!
  • Slow my roll a bit and relax more!
  • Start writing my book this year!
Whew... can I do it?  Let's see.  I'll keep you posted.
 
This is the year that the Adventure Travel World Summit comes to Namibia! hurray! we are all so very excited here.  It is fantastic to see diverse people doing something great as a team!  Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus (but he is on vacation in Swakopmund right now; I saw him chillin' on the beach New Year's Day.)
 
Onto the airport trip! 

I drove out to the airport with my daughter, Martha, to take some photos along the route to and from.  I have my lo-tech digital camera and my shots are by no means professional or stunning; but they do help me tell a story.  I wanted to show you that your vacation in Namibia can start right away with the beautiful sky and landscapes en route to your hotel in Windhoek from Airport. 
 
Likewise, when you are finally leaving after a GREAT holiday in Namibia, the scenery is sort of a farewell scenic drive.  Thanks to Martha for taking the pix!

[well....my novice-ness has struck... I cannot upload the photos that we took.  I have to check to see what I did wrong... sigh...  I have viewed all the pix and they look GREAT!  I made a folder and stored them in My Pictures as I always do.  But, for some reason, the blog won't give me the prompt to load those photos....I'll keep trying and do a blog of photos once I get it to work!  I have to call my buddy Shareen to see if she can help me figure this out.  Sorry about that....]

When you come to Namibia on vacation,

Tell'em, Jackie sent you.
