Two Muslim merchants are in the desert on their way to the Trans-Sahara Trade Route to North Africa to trade salt for gold.
Okay we're in the middle of the Sahara Desert. Which way to North Africa?
Um... actually, I have no idea... I think I was reading the map upside-down. And, I think I dropped it awhile back.
Really? Darn. So let's follow the sun. Okay, Payam?
Oookay, Amin. I'm not sure that will help, considering that the Sahara desert is the biggest desert in the world.
Hey look! We had more slabs of salt then I thought we had! This salt looks like it came fresh from the salt mine, which is found in the Sahara.
