Grootfontein, Namibia
I’m sitting in front of the local police station of this small town in Namibia as Dan files a report regarding our vandalized jeep. Broad daylight at about noon while we briefly used the internet, parked one street off the main drag a thief busted out our rear window. Seeing my toiletry bag behind the passenger seat on top of the water they must have thought it was a purse with money. Sadly $500 with of anti malarial medication not available here was in the bag. Lesson learned as so much else could have been stolen that would have been much worse. We spent the rest of the day having a piece of plexi glass installed before we could move on. We would later take landscape fabric and cover all of the jeep windows to keep it cooler and to eliminate visibility into the vehicle. We will not ever park the car where it is not guarded or one of us stays with it.
