Welcome to Alaska

Its something the locals seem to love saying. I presume the joke is based on the massive temperature diffence. Its a around +40 here  but was pushing 45+ in the desert.
Anyway tue has come and gone and we still wait to get moving for sudan. Its seems almost positve it will be by the road now but not before thurs. For us its coming up on a week here, for the Irish its getting nearer 2!
Still we have had time to sample what Aswan has to offer and filled up with black market fuel in anticipation. Also tinkered with the land rover doing small jobs. In this heat its hard to work for long though.
The last few days we have been glad of our out of town location as there have been demonstrations every eve. They all seem good natured enough, but I think its wise to stay away just in case.
Hoefully tomorrow will bring news of our etd.
