Ticket to Timbuktu - an Adventure - Softcover

When I was a little boy, my mother used to say to me - "Och, you, away to Timbuktu!" She didn't know where , or what Timbuktu was and neither did I. Many years later, as I was nearing my 60th birthday, My wife Kate, asked me if there was something special I would like to do to celebrate the milestone. On a whim I said "I'd like to go to Timbucktu" and thought no more about it. She sent me.
