4 days before our flight back to Venezuela, we celebrated Jaco's 50th birthday(a month before the actual birthday) with all the Namibian friends. It was held at Camp Ripley's, just outside Windhoek. The "old" folks stayed in chalets and the rest of the friends camped for the night. Everybody helped to make this a huge success!
 |
Pierre and Silke supplied the "state of the art" music, equipment and all the right vibes through out the evening... and longer! |
 |
Gys and Marlene (old family friends) supplied an abundance of meat, which Jaco braai-ed Argentine style and .Anita and Joep supplied jam and pickles for the bread |
 |
Rochelle and Sameul came from Swakop and my sister Nardia (whom prepared dried-fruits-and-chilies-dumpling-pot) and Schalk |
 |
Marieta and Andries kept all mugs full with their delicious spicy, potent gluwein. |
 |
Marieta, Margo and Jan stayed all night spitting distance from the Gluwein pot! |
 |
Jaco's brother, Eddie with Elsa and Marsia (full leg in plaster and all) |

Nico and Motte was almost last to leave. |
