Windhoek is a beautiful city – as you can see from the picture.
Here’s a question for you – if you’ve never been to Africa, would you have known it was Africa? This hits as a larger issue – the lingering idea in the West that Africa is all poor and everyone lives in huts. Get out more people and stop listening to Do They Know its Christmas. (Again, I can’t emphasize enough how terrible that song is.)
Windhoek is a great city and Namibia is a wonderful country to visit and be in.

I tried to listen to that song, but could not understand a lot of the words; however, I understood enough to agree with you.

We were involved with the International Fellows program at the War College for a number of years, and one year we sponsored the officer from the Sudan……arrogant fellow he was. We were aware that he did not come to the USAWC from a hut in Africa, but identifying Africa from that picture, I can’t say that is the first location that came to mind.
