From Maribor to Ljubljana (through Libya) 2003/04

Back to the sand again

8.1.2004 | Cairo, Egypt

Today it was finally "for sure" and not just "insha'allah," so that Partner is lifted for 5 centimetres everywhere and ready for new desert challenges. At last I will be able to leave the car repairing stuff behind me and concentrate to nicer aspects of Egypt. It's 3 p.m. here and when I place the final dot in this sentence, Peter and I will leave for Western Desert, but we'll be back with news in a few days.

Cairo - Western Desert

7.1.2004 | Cairo, Egypt

Inspite of the morning promises in the live radio report to Radio Slovenija 1, saying that Peter and I would leave Cairo today and head for a thousand kilomtere trip to Luxor through the Western Desert we actually won't be able to do it before tomorrow. At Peugeot service, the only thing we managed to do today was the oil-change. The rear springs' turn comes "tomorrow for sure insha'allah." Then we finally head for the desert for a couple of days. If the Partner has enough ground clearance we'll report in a couple of days from Luxor, hopefully with some good photos.

Sharm esh-Sheikh, Cairo – final cast

6.1.2004 | Cairo, Egypt

I know desertsoul wasn't a good example of an updated web-page during the last days, but the reason is I was quite busy. What was happening?

From Syrian archive:

3.1.2004 | Egypt

In vulgar Slovenian the name of the first village means something like "I have to take shit right now." Do you think you could bring the burden a kilometre further?

New year, new attitudes

1.1.2004 | Cairo, Egypt

I'll be falling off camels for the whole year; at least if it's true what they say – whatever you do on new year's night you'll be doing throughout the year.
