Lockdown 720

Lockdown Day 720-16 March 2022

I have often wondered what it would feel like to see a large dam filled to the brim while hanging in the water right in the middle of the dam. A sort of flying-fish-eye-view.

This morning we swam towards the harbour wall just behind the swells going in to the beach. Just before we turned, we took a moment to appreciate the sheer vastness of the ocean we were in.

The indigo water was vast as we hung there, peering out into the bay and on to the horizon. With our eyes almost level with the surface, the 360 degree views were as breathtaking as they were impressive.

I felt as if I could stay there forever, "snapping" pictures for my memory bank, not wanting to forget anything. How special it was.

Back on land and dressed warmly, the conversation turned to Mr Prez and the rumours of dropping the state of emergency.

This comes in the wake of Namibia's ruling yesterday abolishing mask wearing and social distancing in public places and raising the number of people allowed at gatherings to 1000 from tomorrow until 15 April.

Tonight I go to sleep with the beautiful pictures my mind's eye took today. And I thank God that He's got this.
