Our Desert trip











Morning in the Sahara







In 2003 Nezha her brother Racheed and myself traveled by Landrover from Marrakech, over the High Atlas Mountains to Zagoura on the edge of the Great Sahara Desert. We were met there by Bedouins, put on their camels and taken on a nite caravan 20 miles into the desert to their camp to spend the nite and the next day.
