Avoiding Angola
Since it seems that getting an Angola visa is a real problem, what is the best way to get around it to Namibia? Fly across from somewhere north, go through DRC, or possibly get a coastal schooner? While I am not sure why Angola is persistent in denying visas to tourists, it is their country and so they can make whatever rules they want that they believe keeps trouble away, I am not prepared to spend two or three weeks sitting around waiting for a visa application to be processed only to be denied. By the time we get there things might have changed, but knowing there are alternatives allows planning that keeps the head banging stress away.
thanks, joe
