Travel: Rohlfs Expedition

Travel with a twist from the New Stuff website where the team are preparing for a camel trek in the footsteps of Rohlfs's 1874 expedition. They have been doing the planning and recruiting expedition members and recently went to Dakhleh oasis in the Western Desert to buy camels where he ran out of fuel but was rescued by a Cairo neighbour! As the writer says, "Such stories are common in Egypt, a land where frustration can occur alongside miracles almost daily!" They are still looking for a couple of expediton members if you're interested and can meet their requirements.
