A day of rest in Algeria I have just spoken to the reporter from the Elchourouk daily who has been with the convoy since it crossed the borders, in addition to speaking to our lads. After yesterday's long drive,the group arrived early this morning near Algiers. (click image for map) The group was split in two, one going to Tipaza and the other one going to Zeralda.
They were put up in hotels and the food apparently is yum yum. Then they were taken this afternoon to the historical roman ruins of Tipaza and shown around by tourist guides. George rejoined the convoy today and sorted out some 'organisational issues'. He also met with some great historical figures from the Algerian revolution such as Jamila Bouhired. He was also met by the Palestinian ambassador in Algeria and the foreign minister. I
could sense from the voices of our lads (can't get hold of the ladies),
that they have never experienced anything like this before, they
cannot rest with all the jubilation, support and friendship shown
by the Algerian people. They seemed a lot more relaxed today ready
for their departure tomorrow heading for the border towns of Annaba
or Tebessa.
