Abdoul drove us out to an area of desert sand-dunes called Erg Chebbi. We rode camels out into the desert to a campsite, where we spent the night, 'having enjoyed the sunset and amazing stars'. The next morning we rode back 'enjoying the sunrise.'
It didn't actually happen quite like that. The ride out coincided with rain and a sand-storm. No sunset. No stars. Lots of sand in face and tent. But on the other hand, there was something interesting and gritty about the sand-storm.
In the morning the weather was much better and the desert was very beautiful.
Theme music 'Midnight at the oasis'.
Beau Dave and Beau George set off into the storm to attack the fort. Cultural reference here.
