Hi from Kayes,Mali

Arrived this afternoon after two days good riding on the northern Senegal route, crossing the border at Kidira.

The area is full of the mighty baobab trees, each one like the Ents from Lord of the Rings. We also stopped to remember Simon Milward at the place where he died in an accident in 2005.

We now have a day here and then we ride back into Senegal.

Craig & Barbara, on the road.

PS: Kayes, Mali is the hottest continuously inhabited city in the world According to weather.com site it was 32 degrees today (Feb 4th)...
