afrikaburns: part 2

So after being helped by multiple men, a Japanese woman, and a band called Crème Brulee and the Seasonal Fruit, we were back on our way. With nothing surrounding us but sand, dust, and the occasional shrub, we drove another hour and a half further into the middle of nowhere. Shocker. Finally, we drove over a hill and we came onto some lights in the distance. Tents were set up in a giant U-shape, which was so big that many choose to bike all weekend. With a little extra help from our neighbors, we set up our tent in the dark and windy cold and set off to explore a bit.

If you have the time, or don't need to pay for internet by the information, you should look at these pictures because they're amazing. I really don’t know how to describe it, because it was nothing like anything I’ve ever seen before. But I suppose this description begins to touch on the feeling of Afrika Burns: a circus-themed 1960s time-warped version of a communist Candyland combined with a contemporary art exhibit in the desert.
