> The camel effect
Day 46, 5060km, the Mauritanian border
After spending half the night ejecting the delicious but subsequently lethal camel tagine I ate for dinner last night, I felt very weak today and really struggled to make the 87km to the border with Mauritania. It wasn't quite the way I envisaged racking up the 5000km milestone but fortunately the others were keen to stay at the border for the night so I've got a chance to try and hold down some solids and prepare for some mine dodging tomorrow!
