We had some desert encounters with Berber and Tuareg tribes that were also very out of time experiences..

I remember one encounter where meeting, this man unwrapped the indigo / electric blue cloth and face wrapping and where the dye leaks into skin he was literally dyed blue.. Hence one of thier names the blue people.. Being a child and being respectfully greeted by this noble but also savage looking and alien bright blue guy was a shocking memory.

Also riding shotgun hanging on the roof of this ex military converted K9 transport come hippy home driven by a drugged up lunatic ex serviceman turned smuggler, who would drive flat out, spinning in doughnuts, to chase dust devils.. Once he hit one it would break the vortex and we would all be covered in an inch of dust..

Yeah.. Our family didnt do the couple of weeks to Majorca type vacations. Mint tea on a carpet in a tent. Sheep or lamb boiled in huge amounts eaten from a single bowl.. Desert stars (that and at sea theres stars like nowhere else on earth).. Freezing nights camping..
