Clive Cusslers Sahara
While not really travel related, well not travel related at all I though those of you who have read Clive Cusslers "Sahara" ( http://tinyurl.com/6rfue [amazon.com]) might be interested to know it's going to be made into a film ( http://www.numa.net/press/050002.html ) starring Matthew McConaughey and Penélope Cruz.
For those of you who haven't read the book, it part of a series of books starring Cusslers unfortunately named hero - Dirk Pitt set mostly in Mali with the usual old forts, tin-pot dictators and pesky French! There's also an American Confederate ship and a dead aussie aviator to keep you entertained. The train reminded me of the SNIM train.
Anyway, it's an opportunity to read the book and annoy people when you go to see the movie! I'm sure it'll not be long before it messes up our Sahara searches on Google...
Cheers,
Nick.
