Our guide to the desert (Sali) is doing his part to fight desertification.
This was the one time we got seriously stuck in the sand. After about 30 minutes of digging we were free and on our way. The gentleman with the automatic weapon was a military guy hitching a ride. It's hard to say no to a guy with a firearm.
