    The mosque was really cool, but closed. There are only a few tours each day.

    We woke up cold - you gotta know that hardly anywhere you will find any heating in Moroccan hotels (well, at least of the standard we were choosing), so you can only rely on blankets - sometimes 2 or 3 of them to keep you warm at night. Anyway, here we were in Morocco and had to get used to that. Our breakfast at the hotel surprised us with a …

    After a harrowing eight hour journey on Royal Air Maroc, we arrived at Mohammed V Casablanca airport. The airline was comically terrible. It was 80 degrees the whole time, the seat "recline" button was permanently depressed, there was no a/c, the bathroom doors lacked knobs, stewardesses would randomly serve or not serve passengers water, and there …

    Casablanca, where's my luggage?

    7 photos

    After trying to make the decision of whether to stay in Casablanca or just head to Rabat, the decision was made for me. Standing at the airport, watching the luggage carousel come to a halt without any view of my luggage, I felt a little bit of a expectancy in this situation. It would have been a miracle for my luggage to have arrived in Casablanca …
