52. ride quad bikes through the desert

EGYPT | Thursday, 9 December 2010 | Views [602]

talk about dusty.

but i guess that was to be expected when riding a quad bike through the sandy dusty desert. we had to mask up our faces with scarves so that we didnt die from the dust. it was a bit annoying that the made us drive in single file, therefore controlling the speed at which we were travelling. some bits were so bumpy it nearly rattled us right off the bike. and oh my goodness, the pain involved in holding on lol

so we were meant to be riding out to a desert oasis. there was no oasis. there was one tiny little tree and maybe one bird haha. certainly no big dam of water with lots of lush greenery like we were anticipating. but they gave us tea. more tea. they love their tea. it was so hot it scolded. but sweet and delicious
