Beautiful and inspiring sunrise quotes and sunrise captions with an image of the sunrise in Namibia

We love to wake up before sunrise to enjoy the early hours of the day and to watch the sunrise over the mountains or the ocean. It always feels like a new beginning, a fresh start to the day with a clear mind to finally start exploring the rest of the day. When we are travelling in Africa we tend to start the day very early. Going on a safari in Africa requires you to get up early to still see some wildlife activity before the heat of the sun sets in. Or when driving long distances in places like Namibia, seeing the sunrise over the red dunes of the Namib desert is just priceless and worth getting up early for.
