I decided to go from Fez to Meknes (18 DH) via train based on my previous experience with dirty buses. Train tickets are cheap and they are a lot more convenient in Morocco in comparison to buses. <br>I got to Meknes around 10am. I droped off my stuff at Hotel Continental which was close by the train station. Then get out to the city for the tour of the Medina and other stuff. <br>The reason to come to Meknes is to visit the ...

... Meanwhile we waited in the freezing cold and piled on jackets, beanies and gloves. Settled into the train when it arrived (compartments with sliding doors) and chatted to 4 of our group for the 2.5hr trip. Wlaked a short distance to our hotel, then met the group again after check in and walked to a restaurant for dinner (Mike and I stopped to use the Internet first). By the time we ate and got back it was after 11pm.

4th October 2008 Hotel Maroc, Meknes Cooling down A lovely 56km ride today, although turned out to be a lot harder than we anticipated. Firstly, the road was good pretty much most of the way, it disintegrated slightly towards the end. But it was after the first 15 kms that we had the nicest surprise, the views were spectacular.

My last day in Meknes, the morning was hot and lethargic, but once the sun started to fall everything livened up. That night I stood in among an audience of Moroccans for a summer concert. I was the only tourist I could see. Meknes was something of Morocco's hidden secret, my favorite city.

Aujourd'hui, réveil tranquille. Nous allons en ville faire un tour de calèche mais on arrive trop tôt ! Quelle surprise ! Du coup, on va boire un café. Le tour en calèche est un peu ennuyeux, par contre, on visite les écuries (anciennes) de Moulay Ismael. C'est très intéressant et plutôt impressionnant. Quand on a fini, Flo et moi partons à la recherche de ses baskets ! Les autres vont voir s'ils ...
