The desert

Quite an experience. We knew there’d be a desert to cross, and that it’d be hot. Don’t think I really understood how hot though, and quite how deserted a desert can be! On the other hand, the roads were fantastic – straight, new tarmac roads all the way. Basically you’ve got absolutely nothing on either side, just scrub, wasted land. White, yellow... no green, no blue and nothing else all day. We got a coach all the way down to Dakhla, then taxiland through Mauritania.

Only problem=no dunes. Only barren wasteland...(lets see if i can get these photos to work!)

This is desert...where’r the dunes?! I think we must've gone the wrong way...
