Landing in Lubango

Lubango is the third biggest city in Angola and because we wanted to get to know a bit more of the country than only the Namibe, this was where we flew to.
At the airport we had Jeff, the lodge keeper, waiting for us. We had no idea how he looked like because when we booked he just said "don't worry about that, I'll find you"! And so he did.
I think it wouldn't be that hard. There aren't that many people looking like tourists in Angola you know...
Anyway, he got to us and took us to the car in which we would go to the Namibe. The car was a Toyota Landcruiser, not the newest but not an old one either. It had maybe 2 years, but this wasn't the chocking part. The chocking part was the whole off road preparation the car had in it! Double chockers in each wheel, huge off road tires, special suspension, the works!
When I saw it, I thought to myself "this guy is an off road geek". He spent the same amount of money in preparing the car that he did in the car itself, but it was so clean, and e paint job so scratch less that I was honestly convinced all that was just for show! Boy, was I wrong... But that's for another post!So Jeff suggested we should get moving, go to the Tundavala before lunch, and then head to the lodge of a Portuguese friend of his to get something to eat. And so we did.
