Arrival in Ouagadougou
Well, the plane was over 3 hours late, but I finally landed in Ouagadougou to temperatures similar to those I'd left in England. It was 30C - but it was midnight. Daytime temperatures are around 40C - check them out here
I managed, with the kind help of my good friends at SIM, to get quite a lot done today, including - appropriately enough - getting a new SIM card in my mobile phone so I can use it in Burkina.
Unfortunately I still don't have transport. So, if things don't come together tomorrow, I'll be heading north on the bus on Thursday.
More soon.

He he, us SIMmers got you a SIM card! That's ok, we've got a guy called Sim on our SIM council and a family with the last name SIM out with SIM in South America!! Glad you arrived safe and well, I remember that temperature when you get off the plane. It gets that hot here in Perth quite often in the summer too!
