Day Twelve: Beyond the law!

We're now in Nouackchott, the northern frontier town of Mauritania, in a secure compound. Apparently the nearest police are the ones we paid 'extra' at the border, but it seems like a friendly place. We've had Titch raised a few inches at the front by a meatball mechanic for 50Euros and a set of garage overalls. We've also had to say goodbye to some luggage after taking on 40L of petrol in jerry cans and enough water for a couple of nights in the desert. Still managed to find a decent Chinese restaurant, though.

More news from the desert tomorrow!
