Years ago, I drove by the Berenice site and then headed inland. Drove for at least eighty miles until arriving at the Nile. The only sight of greenery occurred inland about twenty miles where a camel had died and a bush had grown up around its remains. Stopped halfway to have a Stella beer and was immediately surrounded by swarms of flies. How they survived in that barren land I will never know.
