... being no seats and a million people trying to get into the carriages so at least we have a seat and can rest. The taxi driver was another scam artist at the begining he asked for 25d one way then when we where in the taxi he said oh its 50d one way so I was having a row with him about it, too funny the way once you are in the taxi the price will change so that you have no choice but I would not back down in the end we agreed that he would wait for us at the ...

... space that people have why would you invade it so much just deal with your own little space its so rude!<br><br>Apart from the idiots in front of us the flight was ok we thought it was only 2 hours but it turned out to be 3 as Morroco have the same time as us back in the UK. We got off the plane and had to wait ages to get through passport control then when we got out there was a man waiting for us with the name of the Riad, I always wanted to come to the airport and have ...

... toward the Saadian Tombs about 1km away, managing to get lost in the narrow Medina streets for a while &#8211; a very easy thing to do. (A nice boy helped navigate us out of a few backstreets, for the mere price of five dirhams!). The tombs were quite interesting. They were built by Saadian Sultan Ahmed el-Mansour ed Dahbi in the years leading up to the sultan&#8217;s death in 1603. The sultan spared no expense in creating his tomb, called the ...

... one hour of Internet cost six dirham (less than $1 &#8211; not bad!). Since our current Hotel du Pacha has wireless but we have been unable to access it, we needed to check our email accounts and also &#8211; lesson learned &#8211; attempt to book accommodations in advance for our upcoming days in Fez! We spent just under an hour there &#8211; slow-going with the Internet connection speed (about a 5 out of 10), the crazy souq environment clanging onward outside the ...

... And oh my, we had the best balcony seats in the house as the sun turned the scene to a rosy glow and the square came alive w/ smokey food stalls, snake charmers, jugglers, magicians, et al as darkness descended.<br><br>All in all, a most magical night to top off my fantastic adventures in Morocco.<br><br>

... shop where Alex bought some slippers last night and then left them in the taxi, so we go back there so that she can get another pair &#8211; the man gets seats out and offers us mint tea while we discuss the various slipper options and prices &#8211; amongst other things. I really enjoyed being in there watching life go by outside, drinking the mint tea and watching the very comical bartering between Alex and the shopkeeper &#8211; he tried to get me and John on his side ...

... meet. Tears streaming down our faces and all. Of course, this wasn't the case but sometimes I like to be a bit dramatic. I envisioned me spotting him at baggage claim, bumping into him by accident in on our stopover Madrid...of course none of this happened as well. It is never how you imagine it. I arrived in Marrakech about 10 minutes after him and I came out into the arrivals looking everywhere for him. Actually, when I didn't see him at first, I figured he missed ...

... at one of the many cafes in the Medina. I was so excited to get back to the square the next morning that it was a bit of a shock to see everything except a few orange juice sellers' stands gone. Apparently these festivities are set up and torn down every night. Perhaps it was for the best because I don't think I would ever leave if that kept going 24-7. This way we were given the chance to explore some of Marrakesh's souqs (specialty markets) and visit ...
