In the late afternoon, we drove out of the city with our safari guide Naiib, away from the straight highways into the desert.
The fact that a desert safari is not for everyone according to the description should have made me think ๐ค Nevertheless, we were looking forward to it all day! At a meeting point far from the road, we met about 15 V8 jeeps and deflated the tires. By now, it was clear to me: ๐คข๐คข๐คข
It got worse than expected: for the next half hour, we zigzagged up and down the sand dunes in a convoy of cars. Not for the faint of heart and sensitive stomachs... Our guide performed true acrobatics on the sand. A few times, we could only see the rear tires of the car in front of us from below, and it was clear that we were going downhill ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฒ
After a loooong drive, we visited a camel farm at the first stop... but it was too hot to take nice pictures!
We continued ๐คข๐คข๐คข Michaela felt sick, and Andre was well and happy - on the dunes. Message to Naiib: I'm only doing this for my husband ๐ฉ
Longingly awaited, after what felt like an eternity, the Bedouin camp appeared. Here, we were entertained for several hours with typical activities such as sandboarding, henna paintings, camel riding ๐ซ๐ด, and much more... when I noticed that the tires were being inflated again - I felt a weight lift off my chest! The way back was straight and almost 'sand-free' - Thank you Naiib! ๐๐๐
Despite the sickness and stunts... a great day in a breathtaking setting!!!!!!!!
