Through the desert


On the way from Nouadhibou to Nouakchott in Mauretania

I decided to cross the Sahara rather quickly this time. The most important reason was that I'm really looking forward to getting into tropical regions. Nevertheless, it was impressive in the desert. The landscape kept changing from plateau mountains to sand dunes to grassland. I was surprised about how many plants I saw, most probably due to some rain that had fallen in the previous weeks.
