This morning I decided today was the day and left Er Rachidia for Erfoud. I stopped at my favorite resterant to say goodbye, but they were closed. It felt so great to be out on the road again.
The desert began to drop and follow a river, and date growing plantations and populations lined the road.

It’s all mud brick, donkeys and scooters. But, little piles of sand, not quite dunes, are appearing.

I run into this policeman who is cycling 20Km home from his 2 week work shift, and cycle with hin to Erfoud.

On the road again.

Hi Shawn,
You’re looking much better. Still appears cool out in a desert landscape. Happy riding.
Hi Shawn great to c u better, it seems the shifts are a lot longer for the police there, don’t tell my bosses!!!, i m happy with the way im working, enjoy
