Living on Mars, or the Messum Crater

There are sometimes places that look like another planet. The Messum Crater and also the way to it, looked sometimes more like being on Mars than on our planet. Countless red rocks around us and every now and then a Welwitschia, but even they look like they are coming from a different planet.

It is so remote out there, no other cars for the whole day and also no wildlife. Absolutely dry place, but very nice spot for camping, just the stars under the African sky and us.
