Lizard Man's Travels

This site is a journal of my travels and other adventures while I shift from doing postdoctoral research on tree frog ecology in Darwin, Australia, to research on digestive physiology of lizards and bats in Sede Boqer, Israel. Enough friends have been asking me for regular updates on this journey, that I thought this would be the best forum to keeep everyone up to date (including me).

Walked home


Walked home

I walked home one day after surveying lizards on the dunes. When they rest of the crew arrived by car over an hour later, this is what they saw.

yes, the beer of choice in Namibia is Tafel (see photo) or Windhoek. The area used to be under German control, particularly during the Nazi era, and the are still quite German. Apparently, these are the only beers in southern Africa that adhere to the Reinheitsgebot (the German beer purity law). The other popular beer in southern Africa is Castle, a South African beer, but it doesn't conform to the beer purity law, and frankly doesn't taste very good. Once Windhoek started showing up in S. Africa, it quickly became the beer of choice.
