Dropping Senegal from the road map meant we were able to drive the Route de l’Espoir (Road of Hope).  The ombilical cord that links the Southern Sahara to the Atlantic.

A long drive but a magnificent one.

 

En abandonnant le Senegal, nous nous sommes ouvert la porte de la celebre ‘Route de l’Espoir’, qui relie le sud du Sahara a l’Atlantique.  Plus de 800 kms, mais quels paysages !
