Djibouti - Djibouti City - September/October 2007
We arrive in Djibouti very late in the evening...A lot of persons are walking in the streets. It's Ramadan and it's very hot! During the day, temperature is above 45 °C and during the night +- 40° C...and there is no wind at all... We stay in the Sheraton Hotel. Not really in the hotel, but on a parking behind the maintenance building...It's free for overlanders ...not the luxurious camp, since there is no water, no shower, no toilets ... but we are in front of the sea and our intention is to stay here only a few days and to take the boat for Yemen as soon as possible...
At the port, they tell us that there is a boat for Yemen very soon...We get quickly our Visa for Yemen from the embassy.
Sacha agrees that Daniel cuts his hair...he was refusing since a long time, since he wanted the same look than Harry Potter....
Aida, the mother of the new friends is extremely nice ! Thanks again for everything you did for us !
We swim regularely and try to understand the logic of the tides , which seems quite strange to us...
The children ask us to sleep outside...which is a good solution to survive during the night in this country...
After several days, we feel at home...
