Itinerary description
|
The final stage of my cycling trip to Egypt takes place from Cairo to the Baharia oasis, a 370-kilometer journey in the desert. When much earlier I was in Siwa I wanted to go directly to Bahrain via a road linking Bahrain-Siua, but that was impossible because they informed me that this road is closed for safety reasons. So I put this route in the end through Cairo.
Having spent another cold night in the wilderness, I feel cold and the last few kilometers seem like a windy wind. Winter has gotten well and I'm not properly prepared, but I did not even intend to go here this month.
I could continue the journey beyond Baharias for another two days, but I thought it more prudent to stop here.
