Our serenity was rudely interrupted when we had to pay for our stay. Caitlin had gotten one price on the phone when she booked the room and now we were being charged more money. What was worse is that the guy we had to deal was the most intransigent negotiator I have encountered out here. He acted like he had the biggest penis in Senegal. He kept saying that, that was the price, as if anything has a fixed price in this country. Eventually Caitlin busted out some French battle rhymes on him and he agreed to cut the price. By then it was noon, and my fall into love with the desert abruptly hit the floor. It was hot as fuck. There was no shade. There was no cooler ocean water to enter. There was no breeze. Instead there were strong gusts that blew sand sprinkles everywhere. There was nowhere to be but inside the tents where it was even hotter. I was done with the desert.
