From The Gambia we needed to take a ferry to get back into Senegal - cue a 4 hours wait in the heat as the ferry drivers bashed into posts and the usual crazy sights and sounds were on full display. The snake charmer even managed to co-ordinate his outfit with the JCB as he piped music from his mobile phone through a loud speaker, balanced on his bike.
Time lost in on the ferry meant a final night of bush camping, one of the may things I'll miss from the world of overlanding as the cook groups came up with an amazing variety of dishes from the base of tomatoes, onions, aubergines, carrots and rice.
For those unfamiliar with bush camping, it essentially involves driving until it's close to sunset & stopping on the flattest, hopefully slightly secluded spot on the side of the road and transforming the contents of the truck into a kitchen worthy of the budding masterchef teams.
Those of you who took an earlier leg will a dwindling number of non-fat chairs and a new set of rather colourful 3 bowls.
