over dunes glowing red come to WP1 (fuel @ nearby DAUZ In-Amenas).

Hachette 1:43 1937 Renault AGP85 Saharien Passenger Bus: Hoggar Line (awesomediecast.com)

Take up extra fuel - in front is the Grand Erg Occidental, the proverbial Sahara, yellow dunes from horizon to horizon.
Cross treacherous salt lake Chott el Djerid to end the trip at sunset @ DTKS Kasserine. Olive trees, cold beers, warm shower. Tomorrow it will be France proper via la Corse…
Congratulations, you have made history.

Thanks for watching !
