You did not disappoint...another great episode. Those landscapes are so hard to capture on film. They are lonely, harsh and very isolated but breathtaking at the same time.
They are! It think if we had stayed longer we might have been able to capture it with peace and not rush that much. But I already promised Kai to get to the coast as soon as possible. He had waited for surf for months! And yes, this place has it all, harsh and empty but awe inspiring 🤩
Those beautiful landscapes remind me of outback Australia - very similar. Doesn't a Defender look right at home in such remote places, such an iconic vehicle.
Yes!! The region gave us the feeling we had seen something similar before, but never quite, specially when a giraffe pokes his head behind a tree. 😂😂The Landy feels at Home here. It's a beast that loves such challenges. Well except corrugations, those are man made and were killing our car 💀
Hi, we've just found your channel. On my drive ... a 10 year old blue Landy 110 ... We love it ... Your adventures and videos are epic ... Take care and have the time of your lives 😁
They are really special, aren't they! We saw this and another two.one hanging from a rock, and another one going up the hill, where we parked the bluelandy at the 360°viewpoint.
Love watching your journey so far in Africa, it’s been amazing . Great video again you two thanks for sharing your wonderful journey and adventures with us all your over-landing friends cheers from Steve Stott in Sutherlin Oregon U.S.A.:) :) 🌍🍻👍🏼😁
Africa is a rollercoaster, it offers some of the most spectacular sceneries, wildlife and sense of freedom. But it also does present with many contradictions and inequality. Africa has taught us so much, in a way we never expected. Thank you Steve for being there🤗 see you soon!
Wow, what an incredible place Namibia is. You really need to plan very carefully your daily travels in the more remote areas as you guys have done - but boy, what a reward to see all that harsh and beautiful landscape!
Yes, this part of Namibia can be dangerous in case your car is not in shape for example, or don't have recovery gear or you didn't bring enough supplies. But with these things sorted, it is a hell of a drive!! ❤️
Really great episode thanks. Such a contrast in terrain and views. That was a bit of a drop off at the top of that hill where you parked the Landy to get the 360deg shot!!😵💫
Thank you so much again! It is one of the best places to check the size of the Skeleton Coast. There was a considerable drop yeah, and also, extremely windy! That's why we didn't stay 😵
Great episode again! Thank you for taking us to this stunning place! Little comment on the tracks you found at the coast: These are hyena tracks. The toes of hyenas have the shape of a garlic clove. There are quite a lot of coast hyenas in Namibia. 😊
U r absolutely right about the himba and other such tribes and I am glad you did not exploit them - thank you. Where did you get the thermostat stuck to your mirror?
I am surprised, that people don't talk about it more often! We got it on the internet in Germany. But it broke at the coast in Namibia due to exposure to sea salt. We still need to try to flush it with fresh water and se if we can revive it.
@@Thebluelandy depends, there are 2 types, indoor and outdoor. The outdoor one is almost sealed. I just bought one and will see how well it does. Are you planning to come up the west coast of Africa? If so, there are complications brewing up stream.
Thank you 😊 Oh yeah, I would not do it with a petrol engine the fuel consumption is way better with a diesel and you got more torque at low rpm. We are really lucky with the car, but we're also checking on all new noises and do frequent proper maintenance.
Thank you so much! We always prefer to camp in the bush. We have been doing it since we started and we love the feeling of freedom and connection to nature. we are self-sufficient, so we rarely stay in campsites or hostels. We know is important to support the local community and we choose to do so once in a while.
Hey, we did two videos about our shipping nightmare, you can check them out. We shipped from Aqaba to Mombasa in a Container. But Jeddah might be better if you want to ship from Mombasa talk to guys from East Africans warehouse, they helped us.
Yes! Most probably hyena. There was at least one or two that did cover the whole way from Cape Cross to the entrance of Skeleton Coast NP, through beach, checking for dead seals!
It is really! We loved it so much to get around such a landscape. The Skeleton Coast is a dead trap! Scary to think that ships got stranded deep in the desert and there was nothing that could be done 😱
Hi! Thanks for your comment. What's annoying? My voice, the things that I say or how often I say them. Can you be more specific? Some can be adapted others I was born with. 😂😂😂😂 And I understand everybody has their preferences, so you can always mute the video and put subtitles in TH-cam. There is always a way. Waiting for your feedback 😜
I agree that the trip you are on is breathtaking. The Bluelandy is also so at home in this environment. Thank you sharing your adventure.
Old Defender's Journey!! I'm always enjoying good travel videos Have a nice trip
Our bluelandy is getting places!! Happy that you are enjoying our videos! See you around 😎

@@Thebluelandy Aah…that pesky thing called time! I hope you guys know about the longest wave at Skeleton Bay. ☝️
Yeah we do, we’ll get there 😅
The adventure of a lifetime.....and South America to come (presumably you'll time it for the Southern hemisphere summer)
Hey Bert, the timing of South America strongly depends on the shipping and when we find container buddy's
Simply breathtaking
It is one of our favorite places to this date!
Hello again. I sure enjoy traveling with you. Very nice narrating Irati.😊
Hi! So happy to have you around in our trips! Thanks again 🤗
Bravo. São uma inspiração para quem sonha com uma aventura de overland sentado no sofá a cer as belas paisagens que nos dão a conhecer. Obrigado
É um prazer compartilhá-lo. estamos adorando a viagem até agora, esse planeta é incrível!!🌍❤️

So glad TH-cam connected us! You have the right color Landy 💙 take care of it, all the work will be paid twofold! We love it as well, see you around!
Thanks, i will look into it. Stay safe, and have i nice trip .
Anytime, if you have more questions you can reach out on Instagram ;)
Love the stoneman.

Magnifique !!
Merci Laurent !!!
Great adventure, guys!
Thank you so much!! Where are you guys at the moment?

Thank you!! We wish we knew at the time. All the weeks in the area thinking it was lions everywhere🙈🙈🙈🙈

"The land God made in anger". You look very pleased with yourselves to me !! Enjoy - I know you will.
bravi bellissimo🤩
È spettacolare!😱
Such spectacular scenery. Are you glad to have a diesel engine? The Bluelandy seems bullet proof (-;
Thank you 😊
Oh yeah, I would not do it with a petrol engine the fuel consumption is way better with a diesel and you got more torque at low rpm.
We are really lucky with the car, but we're also checking on all new noises and do frequent proper maintenance.
It does seem like the best option for the job. The TDI engine reminds me of my old 2005 Cummins diesel engine…300,000 miles and not one problem!
Great episode. What I don’t understand though why you didn’t camp at one of the community campsites in Purros and support the locals?
Thank you so much! We always prefer to camp in the bush. We have been doing it since we started and we love the feeling of freedom and connection to nature. we are self-sufficient, so we rarely stay in campsites or hostels.

nices video :)
Vielen Dank Thomas!! 🤗🤗🤗
Hello, who did you get your car from middeleast to Mombasa, i am planning to go there in october?
Hey, we did two videos about our shipping nightmare, you can check them out.
We shipped from Aqaba to Mombasa in a Container. But Jeddah might be better if you want to ship from Mombasa talk to guys from East Africans warehouse, they helped us.
Not lions, judging by your hand/fingers it is possibly brown hyena. But lions have started to learn the art of seal hunting again. Enjoy your trip.
Agree.
Yes! Most probably hyena. There was at least one or two that did cover the whole way from Cape Cross to the entrance of Skeleton Coast NP, through beach, checking for dead seals!
How much fuel can you carry.?
We’re somewhere at 112-115L on road that brings us 1100km
What a bleak remote place .Skeleton coast know by sailors as the graveyard !
It is really! We loved it so much to get around such a landscape. The Skeleton Coast is a dead trap! Scary to think that ships got stranded deep in the desert and there was nothing that could be done 😱
The voice over is annoying. Maybe some subtitles would be better...

Nothing wrong with your voice! I love your accent, welcome to Namibia. Safe travels.
