: : How could the desert be three weeks in every direction?!? It would take the trucks, etc. quite a long time to gety there wouldn't it? I was under the impression that Cairo was fairly close, considering Sallah and Indy got there pretty quick. What do you guys think?

: Good question!, maybe Belloq was just trying to discourage Marion from trying to escape.
: When I was In Egypt I wasn´t fortunate enough to travel very far into the Sahara desert
: but three weeks is probably not overrated when you consider that she would be walking in sand underneath
: the burning sun.

The full quote is "If you're trying to escape on foot, the desert is 3 weeks in every direction." Three weeks isn't a bad guestimate, I'd say.
