Heading back to Djanet across wide wide expanse of nothing.
Smoke break
at the Nov 1960 Berliet expedition sign.
Stop for lunch just 18km short.
Can we get to the hotel already?
Quick visit to crying cow.
Totally different artistic style. Cool.
Arrive at hotel
Hani arrives to sort out my missing eticket.
Also to deal with Paul who has decided to bail tonight.
In Paul and Howards room I notice Howard holding a ticket.
It's mine for goodness sake! What was he thinking when I asked if anyone had my ticket on the first day in Djanet. I asked him what he intended to do with it - a blank stare.
Oh my goodness.
To add to the fun the ticket I was carrying was actually Paul's but when I asked him his last name he only gave me the last two syllables of his long polish name so there was no match in my head. (no, his name is actually Edward Paul Gatza but the ticket I held had a typo and said: EOWARDGATZA. Paul didn't recognize it so why would I? Who knew his first name was a misspelled Edward?
Now he says 'that's my ticket'. It's moot because Paul is leaving early but what ticket did he think he had?
Which reminds me, Howard asked me yesterday what the name on my ticket was, I spelt it and he didn't recognize his friends name!
Oh the insanity!
Hotel's lousy shower is great! No wifi.
Will have dinner here at hotel tonight and hit downtown Djanet tomorrow.
Paul is leaving us at 1am tomorrow!
