In 1972 I was in Morocco and wanted to go to East Africa (and whence by boat to India). The plan had been to travel along the Med coast to Alexandria, and then down the Nile. But could not get entry into Libya and travel very restricted in Egypt (none below Aswan) so had to switch to Plan B - across the desert in Algeria into Niger and then across the jungle lands of central Africa.
Always been interested in Sudan.
Super jealous. Its just about impossible to travel overland south from Algeria into Niger today. Even if you can avoid the military restrictions, that area is crawling with unavory militant groups who would love to take a westerner hostage.
