Sand Dunes of the Sahara Desert

After driving from Fez through the Middle Atlas Mountains, we arrived in the Sahara Desert.  We did a 4x4 tour through a few small villages and then took a bumpy camel ride to a desert auberge for a night.  It was endlessly quiet in the dunes and after hiking up to the top of a nearby one, I watched the sun set and the stars rise...
