NO...at this moment we have only an unsubstantiated post reporting "someone said"...now the Detective work begins!!

This would be a new visit for us...but while not on the official US travel warning :list", this is a very dicey place to visit...located between Somalia, Eritrea, and Ethiopia, a wee bit risky. Pirates, anyone?? :lol3:

Somebody posted the other day that we have US Marines stationed at Djibouti and one other place that escapes me in Africa. That would dovetail nicely with the rumor I found about the Marines appearing on TAR in 2010. It would also provide at least one task (involving Marines) with no significant danger to the racers from terrorism.

If true, Djibouti should be an interesting stop and could hint at a stop in one of those neighboring countries, which would be fascinating, at least for me. I know a couple of people that are in the coffee business (not very well though) and they don't seem to have any concerns about going to Ethiopia. I'm not sure about the safety of Eritrea or Somalia.

I think this could be true.  I'd love seeing the race return to Africa after last visiting it in TAR12.
