On day three in Swakopmund, Helena settles into a slower rhythm. She wanders the jetty in the fog, explores the weekend market at the Mole, visits the Swakopmund Museum and the old train station, and reflects on the cost of living, the weight of history, and the quiet drama of the town's skyline. She also starts mapping the road north to Sossusvlei and Etosha.
