Day 5.5 Paid the Bill

Total cost of 4 nights stay in the luxury room with the amazing balcony of the La Louisiane Hôtel, including 4, 2 course well-cooked meals washed down with a 1/2 carafe of French wine each night = 120 000 francs...










...or about US$240.00. This is not an expensive trip.

I meant to add earlier that it was quite a bit hotter today. The thermometer at the hotel read 40°C in the shade (about 104°F on the old scale) but I don't think it was that quite that hot. It felt more like the mid-30s to me. The sky had a dusty brownish tinge to it today and the winds were really kicking up. This must be the Hamattan winds blowing off the Sahara.

If it is in the mid 30s in late November, I can only imagine what it must be like in summer, especially with no-AC.
