Hotel Terminus Rabat

... Bernardo (he is from Brazil), and I went to a book store. It was glorious. I bought some Moroccan cookbooks in English (!). But on a stranger note, I bought a karate book (in Arabic) because inexplicably it had Chuck Norris on the front cover (and Bruce Lee in the back). I also bought an Arabic Agatha Christie in case I ever get good enough to read it. I can find the equivalent in English and stress my mind. I picked one because of the title, “Qta Wast ...

... after dark so we were not able to see a lot of the beauty of the city but we were able to do a lot of shopping! The town caters to tourists so there was plenty to see and even more buy. The vendors spoke Arabic, Spanish, French and English so as we walked by each shop they would rattle through different phrases in each language until we finally responded to one we understood (namely Spanish and English). I was able to buy a lot of Christmas gifts for people and even ...

... the only thing to do justice to this virtuosity outside of the pictures I intend to take this weekend. <br> <br>A) Addendum: What Exactly Those Double Lines Mean<br> <br>Many people stay to their perspective sides but the occasional sheep will wander. This is nothing to be astounded over. It is socially accepted to pass in such sections and driving in the other lane is not frowned upon. If there is a car coming your way you may receive a honk but it is ...

... we mocked. An overwhelming thought comes to mind, &#8220;****, what now?&#8221;<br>So Stuart has become like everyone else in my Arabic classes in University, better than me. It brings to mind, &#8220;Et tu Stuart?&#8221; I think that is what Caesar said. Nonetheless, David: if you ever need a shoulder to cry on or a Japanese study buddy, I&#8217;ll give you my number. <br><br> <br>Though, upon reflection, David quit Japanese. I hope this is not a ...

... I just wanted to get out of the cab. <br><br> <br>At least there hadn&#8217;t been a language barrier just a geographic barrier.<br>I walk the ¼ mile with my groceries from the store earlier (non-perishables of course) to my room. <br><br> <br>So to Zineb (teacher) and Stuart, not everyone knows Souissi/ Mohammed V University. <br>Going out to places alone may be more frustrating than originally assumed. But definitely not dangerous. Everyone I walked past on the way to ...

... br><br>The end of Ramadan is a festival called Eid al-Fit, "Festival of Breaking the Fast," an occasion for fine clothes, lights, decorations, gifts and visiting friends and family. One of the most popular sites in Morocco during this time is Tour Hassan, a 12th century minaret in Rabat, conceived to be the world&#8217;s largest architectural tribute to Islam.<br><br>Tour Hassan is a 44 meter tall prayer tower, located on a bluff overlooking the River ...

... the other kids - gently. Up until now, she's been rigged up in that contraption and has only been able to sit at the table coloring. She still has the metal band bolted in her head, but it isn't hooked up to the weights. I hope she is progressing to the next phase of treatment. Her mom didn't hover at all, but was definitely keeping an eye on her to make sure she didn't get too rowdy ...

... get most of them to do it, so we'll have at least 20+ hands. I'm just wondering if we'll be able to pull it off without the paper getting destroyed? Inshallah. This afternoon we had a cooking class and our House Manager, Kadija, taught us to make chicken tagine. About six of us attended the class and we made the main course for dinner tonight. And, no, I did not touch the raw ...

... all wore our CCS t-shirts so we could identify each other at the airport. Landing in Rabat, I looked out the plane's window and saw tall grass and trees just off the runway - it's like they just paved enough land for the runway and let the vegetation grow around it. We entered the terminal and promptly got into the wrong line for passport/immigration. Ten minutes later, we realized we were in the Moroccan citizens line and moved ...
