White Desert


Finally we were in the White Desert! It was our main goal. It was very white, in clear contrast with the yellow desert! You want to ask me, what it is? There are a big wind-shaped rocks from limestone, from real chalk! We couldn't believe and licked it once;) I had written the same in the school!

It is off-road area. The White Desert is big, there are different areas. The most amazing is, where the rocks look like a mushrooms and tables. Everybody think, the desert is a lonely place. This desert is tranquil, calm, peaceful but isn't peopleless! Of course this area is less explored than Red Sea, however we spotted another group in the distance and we met jeeps with tourist from Europe, Japan, India every hour. And mushroom-area was very crowded!

And it were not only people! I saw the footsteps of fox, jerboa, lizard and snake. We were lucky to see a little fox. It went to us during the dinner and ask for a biscuit.

We stay two nights out in the desert. First we wanted to sleep in a tent, but we had seen the sky full of stars and decide on a mat outside.

To be continued...)
