Algiers 8/3 23 Thank you for your letter today!

Well now we have travelled more than 250 kilometres

into the Sahara desert and have

ridden on the “ship of the desert” (the dro-

medary) – a pretentious name I used to

think – now I understand: it is

the rocking movement that has

given it its name – well in connection

with the sand’s waves, which its

large “paw-feet” can float on.

We lived on a desert island (oasis).

We were invited to a wedding there.

Many wives. – A stately patri-

night. We are now travelling westward to Oran

and from there over to Spain and then in a zig-

zagging up through Sp. to Paris. Best wishes your N.A.
