Namibia - Part 1

Dave and Si, travel to the Germanic town of Swakopmund, on the Namibian coast.

Having gorged themselves on crocodile satay and oryx rolls, they explore a Bavarian café and a township shebeen, before being treated to their first taste of a mopane worm. This is followed by local crayfish, taken from the ocean by the pair
