Advent season in Bitterwasser

The Advent season has also arrived in Namibia.

And despite daily temperatures of between 35 and 39 degrees, the atmosphere is cozy. The traditional Advent wreath has been given its very own African touch. The palm leaves from the lodge have been artfully arranged into a wreath. Now a new candle can be lit every Sunday.

Bitterwasser wishes you a wonderful first Advent!
