On the road to Mareb and Shibham




In the morning jeeps from different hotels gather to "convoy" to Mareb with an escort.


Signs on highway remind that machine guns are not allowed.

We go through many villages...






Our cars (5 4x4)







Our Drivers.

We have some serious protection around us!













Gee, these "things" are heavy!














Going through the desert is not easy... and it was HOT!
And finally, at the end of the day, beautiful Shibham.
