> Pea sandwiches

Saturday, 28 November 2009 - 01:00

Day 58, 6000km, Richard Toll, Senegal

I've just discovered how to eat cheaply in Senegal - spicy pea sandwiches at 40p, bargain! We didn't travel far today after taking a boat trip in the morning and seeing crocs, monitor lizards, and even a python, each of which looked like it would take more than a pea sandwich to satisfy. Headwinds and dirt trails also kept our speeds down and then once on paved roads the ever present danger of pot holes prevented one from drifting off. Anyway must dash I've got pea sandwiches to eat!
