We are confined to the van by a sand storm. 42* C and we daren't venture outside until it passes.
It really is a whiteout. We can see no further than the kasbah 's outer wall. Gone are the dunes and palm trees. A layer of orange dust covers all our surfaces and has got into places we never knew existed!!
We truly understand why small communities build walls, why desert tribesmen wear turbans that can be unraveled to cover their faces and why camels have long eye lashes. It's for days like this.
Kindle and cake until everything calms down.
