Best Western Hotel Toubkal Casablanca

... quite familiar with this week. <br><br>Murray had been reading up on Morocco during the days leading up to our arrival there, and by his suggestion, we decided not to spend any time in Casablanca but instead split our Moroccan week between Marrakesh and Fez. So, we bought train tickets from the airport directly to Marrakesh. We did have to switch trains in Casablanca, however, and when we arrived at the train station there, it was hard not to notice how smelly the ...

... really humid and hot out, and we were up playing volleyball and the ball went through this little hole in the net and went overboard! The ship has a ball though so we will have to use that from now on. Sad day. So that&#8217;s it from my end, I&#8217;ll keep you posted on anything new that happens, email my mom if you have any questions and she can send them to me!

Most of the time they would start with ``where are you from'' followed by ``welcome to Morocco'', tips on good places to visit; then ``you can help my my friend''.

At one point (not far from the hotel) Shellie was approached by a young man (who hand not grasped any alternative ...

... que ele, quase que tenho vontade de dizer que meio atrapalhado, como se estivesse ao ponto de me pedir algo, me propôs que eu fosse com ele para casa dele, tomasse um banho, comesse uma refeição decente e que depois ele me deixaria de novo na entrada da auto-estrada.

Because of that visa we stayed whole night in Casablanca, and next day we saw, that in place of consulate (still sign outside) we will have NOKIA office :( We were ****** off... We've lost one day... We decide at least to visit only monument in Casablanca - the Mosque of Hasan II. That is something really impressive. It is good ...
