Namibia Africa Dune 45

This is Dune 45, one of the most photographed sand dunes in the world. It is located in Sossusvlei, a huge salt and clay pan set among sand dunes that rise as high as 1,000 feet and cover and area of almost 20,000 square miles. These sand dunes are Namibia’s #1 tourist attraction, according to the Lonely Planet web site. We stopped at Dune 45 for about an hour-and-a-half so people could take some pictures and do a little dune climbing. Luckily, no one got lost.
