After trying to sleep through a sandstorm, the team have lost their enthusiasm. Riding with zero visibility, it’s unsafe for them to continue, but it’s even more dangerous for them to camp on the roadside. Finally arriving safely in Egypt, the team are reunited with the Americans. Catching the Aswan ferry, they cross the border into Sudan and into sweltering heat. Eventually making it to the UNICEF project in Ethiopia, Charley and Ewan are starting to love Africa - before Ewan has a fall.
