And this one: I went to the mall that day, and I saw so many deep V t-shirts floating around. This is my take on what I saw...yes, I'm a goofball.

Me & MIAspotter having a few in Cafe L´arc in Girona, after the Corrfocs firework & demon display. I was a demon for the drink that night, having discovered it as only €1.50 for a glass of red wine...also amazing how I converse much better in Spanish when drunk...

This is me (the one in the middle) and two friends in Mauretanië during a charity rally from Amsterdam & Antwerp to Banjul (going through Dakar) in Gambia. It took us 2,5 weeks and 7000 kilometers / 4400 miles of solid driving to get to the finish with our 2 1999 Renault Espaces (one of the rules was that the car couldn't cost more than a 1000 euro), we drove a week through the Sahara dessert, which was quite the challenge not having 4x4 But we made it, unfortunately we had to leave 1 car in the dessert after the engine broke down.

A response we got often But we thought f*ck it, let's do this in the worst car possible and see if we make it
Mind you, all the electrics where fried at the end, before the start it already ran at least 260k in KM ( or 160k in Mi), but the engine was still going strong, as was the suspension. But next time I'd buy a 4x4, just so we can have fun in the dessert instead of 7 non-stop days of "are-we-gonna-get-stuck"-paranoia

I don't have a picture to contribute to this thread, but that is just epic! Mad props to you guys, this is the kind of stuff I can only dream of! You should do a trip report (if you have done one already, I missed it)

Sounds an amazing trip, and would love to do it sometime. What's the political situation like in Mauritania now and how safe is it for travelling?

Incredible road trip!
Did you write up a report or blog about this adventure? Would be great to read about that.
It's rare to hear about road trips in north Africa, especially coming from Europe.

Actually very difficult to know for sure, we were told by officials "it was completely safe", but during our whole stay we were escorted by heavily armed "Gendarmerie". So that took a bit away from the officials credibility
I must say in the beginning I was bit apprehensive, but apparantly you can get used to just about everything. Even being escorted by some AK-47 and RPG waving idiots...
We stayed away as far as possible from the current politics (with the president being shot only days before our arrival), which wasn't that difficult as wel slept most of time in the Sahara Quoting Superfly (Reply 24):

Actually I did, and from what I've heard from the readers it was even a bit funny. Unfortunately it's all in Dutch, but the Google Translate versions are pretty decent (especially part 2);
Part 1:

Part 2:

PS: the first translated line from Part 2; Here I am, I finally have a little man to feel, at the edge of the pool...". No I wasn't glad I could finally touch up a dwarf, it should have read; Here I am, finally feeling human again
