I went home for 3 weeks around Christmas and New Year to escape the heat and boredom of Windhoek during that time of the year. It was nice to follow the old Christmas tradition again with proper pine tree, goose and Christmas markets. I also enjoyed ice skating after a few years break. It was a very relaxing time as I did not try to visit all my friends in Europe (sorry, dears). On my flight back home from home I had the opportunity to see the great countryside of Namibia from the air and this time I did recognize a couple of things I saw. The most impressive one was Etosha. Only from the air I realized how big it really is, after I have driven around in this area for 3 days.
