We were woken up in the morning (on a flat airbed, of course) by tremendous wind that was beating Partner's windows and roof with huge raindrops, followed by hail. But Tripoli skies cleared up soon and with Salah we visited the Great Jamahiriya Museum. Fantastic! Antiquity is especially well covered and presented (what hasn't been looted is here now), as well as prehistory with wall paintings from Akakus mountains in deep Libyan Desert (where we're going to be in a couple of days). The guide was nicely escorting us up and down Tripoli downtown, during our "free time" he was taking care that nothing unpleasant occurs to us… But we could still visit one place all by ourselves!

Tomorrow we'll head a scanty 600 kilometres to Ghadames, a tiny old market town on the very edge of the great desert, close to Tunisia-Algeria-Libyan border, and then further on towards the south to Sabha, where Partner will have some rest, for we keep on with a four wheel driven vehicle, although Hakim, the guide that takes us over tomorrow, said: "You can go with your car to the part of the desert we are going to." But later he added: "If you don't need it in the future."

So, expect interesting photo material when/if we return from Sahara.

P.S.: Today we bought the Green Book with all the parts, published by now: Politics, Solution of world economic issues, and The Third Universal Social Theory. The book that changes your live!

We'll still looking for The colonel (the live version), maybe we'll have some luck in the sand.
