Still no message about my luggage… I spent last night in Auberge Sable Blanc – small pension located few blocks out of the central Blv Republique. I do not waste my time: today I took full day trip to the Lac Assal – very picturesque salt lake announced to be the deepest depression in Africa: 153m below the sea level. It is located about 100 km west of Djibouti City. No local transport. I rented a car with a local guide-driver: Houmed Loita (french only, please) his mobile ph: 82 22 91. – he is worth to recommend. The lake itself surrounded by dormant volcanoes is very impressive. Two days after walking on the white snow in Poland I walked here on the waste area of white salt! Locals collect this salt and export it – mostly to Ethiopia…
