Verdict: carrot
ON the first day of January 2001 — the beginning of the new millennium — the French husband-and-wife team of Sonia and Alexandre Poussin set off on an epic trek to walk the entire length of Africa, a journey they hoped would symbolically retrace the one made by early humankind. With no logistical back-up and very little besides a few maps in their backpacks, their eccentric odyssey, while obviously including detours to such famous landmarks as Table Mountain, the Victoria Falls, the Ngorongoro Crater and Africa’s highest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro, would also see them slogging their way, often in extreme heat, through some of the continent’s most remote, harsh and inaccessible landscapes.
