Our Second stop was in Opuwo. We stayed in Opuwo for two nights. This stop was very interesting because of the differences in cultures all in one place. You have the Himba, that still live and dress very traditionally. On the other hand you have others that live in town that were dressed very modern. Some of these people are Himba even that have decided to not live or dress traditionally. It was very odd to see these two put in one place and living together as if nothing were out of place when to us it really looks different.
It is strange to be in town with shops and all then drive just a few min outside of town and then you see huts and goats and cows everywhere.
The view from our campsite was awesome. we were up on the side of this mountain and we got a good look at the sunset. i know this may not be a big deal but there was even grass to put your tent on. In a country that is so dry, this is a really cool thing.
