THE COWRIES

But first of all, what a cowrie? A cowrie is the bed of a river, which only exists during rainy season. During the violent rainy periods, the cowrie becomes filled in a few minutes and becomes unbridgeable. If u try to cross a cowrie during rain season, take care, u may not be able to come back, the cowrie may be full of water and sand !!!. The solution in such case? Wait the cowrie becomes dry again, and passable! But I would not like to be too alarmist and to deprive you of the pleasure to enjoy these cowries, by cars or motocycles. Please, follow the guide!!

Here is the sky before rain !!

The first cowrie is close to Niamey, on Say road, after Kennedy bridge, on the right.

The cowrie is surrounded with very beautiful dunes, where it's possible to have Touareg tea... silence and serenity !

Let's go now to the cowrie of the devil.
