Photos from Namibia

Thanks so much to Mike, who, if you have been following the comments here at Pittwatch you already know, resides in Namibia. He is providing us with some really great info that we can’t get anywhere else. :) He just sent me these pictures, the first two are of the sandstorm they had today (have you ever been in a sandstorm? There is almost nothing worse…), and the third is the hospital in Namibia where (in Mike’s words) “Angelina has reserved a room and the facilities to deliver a water birth.”

How exciting – I can’t thank you enough, Mike!!

This is a beautiful hospital facility!

    Belle, why do you believe Angelina is lying about her due date especially when she’s never said what it was one way or another until today?

    Christina I DID do better than I thought I would! It’s really interesting that it would be that cool there, but ITA, totally comfy. I lived in LA and coming from the midwest(oh/il) first, and then the south (Ga), it was wonderful to have LA’s dry 75-80 blue sky days, and 55-60 nights. Yes, I think I’d like Namibia.

    JPF – you are almost right, 18-22 degrees C. translates to about 64-72 degrees farenheit. Perfect weather in my book. But you can keep the sandstorms. ;)

    That video was TOO cute – who ever made the comment about her beauty being effortless (Catherine??), you are so right. People mag. knows what they are talking about. ;) I have thought this for a very long time now – there is no more beautiful person on the planet.

    Hi guys!

    Good to hear everyone’s thoughts. Here are mine:

    It is great to see Angelina looking so well and happy. The causes she is supporting are really worthwhile too.

    I think Angelina and Brad have told a white lie about the due date for the protection of their baby and their privacy ( don’t tell anyone! :-) ). I think the baby is due sooner rather than later. A woman’s first baby is on average late anyway. I think the hospital looks great and a water birth sound right up Angelina’s street – good for her and good luck to mother and baby both!

    I think it is no wonder Angelina was giggling in the interview, I think that if she realised the magnitude of the world’s interest in her and her family it would be hard to cope with.

    Also, I think that Brad and Angelina’s bodyguards can be forgiven for being tough verbally with the paps. I don’t think people realise, the paps are following celebs around all the time, looking in every window etc. I have seen videos of other celebs where the paps say anything to get a reaction and get a picture, even lies or insults. The paps use the excuse that people want the pictures, but it is one thing to look at a picture (as we all like to do), it is another to follow another person to take photos for money, and to do anything to get it.

    P.S. Thanks to Mike!

    Wow! it’s beautiful what great view, thanks mike for the pics, keep us updated

    Thanks so much Mike. I don’t know how to calculate celsius, but I know 0 is freezing, and 100 is boiling, so are you saying it’s usually extremely cold (18-22c)……..are am I stupid lol. I know fahrenheit is 32-212, so I’m taking a wild guess and saying that it’s translated normally 75-80 degrees. I won’t drive ya nuts, I promise “she says after the fact” :)

    beautiful place..perfect for them

    I bet that is a big mess for cameras and everything else you might have. And it surely IS indeed beautiful there – so much different than anything we have in the U.S. Thanks again, Mike, you are a real sweetie!

    The weather here changes everyday from one extreme to the next. Only last week we had 55mm of rain. Now 55mm does not sound a lot, but on average our region only gets 6mm of rain a year. This was all in one day. So you will see some photos where people are wearing long sleeve shirts etc. On average our temperature should be between 18 to 22°C. We are also moving into our winter season. With the sand storms or ‘east weather’ as we refer to, sand gets in everywhere. So you can be sure that the paparazzi had a difficult time keeping their camera’s clean.

    Absolutely majestic! Mike you are very lucky to be living in such a beautiful place.
    I’m thinking next family vacation…LOL…way out of my price range.
    Thank you Mike and Christina!

    Thanks Mike & Christina!

    Mike I have a question about the climate. Although it appears hot windy & arid, I notice that people seem to be covered up in long sleeves, pants, and some people were even in sweaters. What’s the deal? Is it cool & dry there, and/or is it about protection from the sand? Thanks for any help with the question..

    by the way…..it’s beautiful. The sky is like a painting it’s so blue and clear. lovely.

    Well, looks like they are hunkered down for the long haul…with everything they need, including family close by. Thanks Mike!!

    I still think she’ll give birth around the 20th of May. Just a gut feeling.
