We
arrived in Wadi Halfa mid-morning, having departed Abri nice and early. Magzoub
had arranged for us to be picked up by one of the shared minivans from his
place, which made finding it much simpler and cut down on the amount of time we
had to wait for it to fill up, as it was already half full by the time it
collected us. The couple-of-hour journey from Abri to Wadi Halfa cost us 200
SDP each – or about 2.5 USD.
Once we
arrived, we tracked down a hotel to stay in. We’d been given a recommendation
by some people we met in Abri, so went to check it out. The Kangan hotel is
definitely a bit out of the way on the edge of town, but that meant it was free
from the noise of traffic. Always a bonus.
