Driving back

We now had to go back to offical custom at Diama. According to our GPS it was only 5km away. So we crossed a nice village (see pic) and drove on. Unfortunately there were wetlands behind the beach.... And we drove around for one hour without finding a reasonable road. Finally we stopped in a village and asked for a guide. After some negotiation we loaded two guys into the car and drove on. They guided us through a beautiful region which happens to be a national park.... It took us another one hour and half on very bad road to reach the customs. We had to drive 25km around the wetlands.... We left the guides... And they walked back to the villagm only three kilometers and some pirogues crossing away. Well, we have a good car, but unfortunately it can not swim. We crossed the check point into Senegal without further problems and arrived safely in St. Louis at 22:00.
