We went to bed with wind that made camping unpleasant, but woke up in the most beautiful day. I wash clothes; Hugo and Andrej are sleeping in and Willie makes several calls to find out about our container. We are finally talking to the right people, and it seems as if we got caught in the middle of a feud between the shipping company and customs. The one owes the other money so we or our stuff became the “scapegoat.” Pay us first, and then we will release the furniture! A good friend of ours in Swakopmund is helping us tremendously and we will probably know even more tomorrow.
It is a lazy day and we all enjoy the down time. The boys enjoy the sun, beach and snorkeling. Willie and I have time to catch up on mail and the admin stuff that drags behind one like a tail. Not even in the bush can you get away from it.
Willie and I go snorkel after lunch and a dream comes true for me. For several years a friend of mine in Egypt would share her pictures of snorkeling in the Red Sea with me and I could not believe what I saw. As I hover in the water over the coral reef I still cannot believe what I see: fish of all kinds and sizes dressed in dazzling colors – stripes, blocks, dots, patches, any pattern you can think of. The Designer-Creator’s paintbrush teasingly danced over all available color palettes, lavishly dipped deep into some and tip-toed lightly over others to create little swimming rainbows.
We meet South African friends who live in Israel and have an interesting time of listening and sharing our individual journeys.
