Ibis Moussafir El Jadida

... up the very same road and across amazing but unfortunately unstable Mauritania in minimum time anyway.

After these events all our hopes and plans were altered and although we agonised and i was actually of the perhaps too positive view that NOW the strip we were set to set off on to would be the safest, Stu sensibly thought ...

... deal and my oh my it was! In one day, all over this area of the world wealthy families sacrifice a single, strong sheep-a bit spesh to see out here but herds of them are EVERYWHERE wandering around-as a religious re-enactment of when the prophet Abraham had to choose between sacrificing his eldest son or a sheep out in the desert and decided on thez latter.

LUCKILY as after a morning of merriment and meagre ...

quelques heures, Guillaume a eu le temps de perdre une couronne.
Cette station balneaire sans interet nous a pas inspire. Nous avons
repris la route en direction de walidia,

Departure from Morocco is a long process so leave plenty of time. Flights leave early and customs is slow and thorough. Be very early to allow plenty of time. The lines are long and the flights do not wait.

Take a trip of a lifetime. When I ...

... Today we had lunch with the rotary club in Essaouira and walked around the area a bit. But much of the day was spent in the van, which would seem restful, but that's not always the case. It's hard to nap with the curvy roads and at times we were driving on bumpy road. We did stop and take pictures of goats in trees, which was pretty cool ! I know Katie really wanted to see that. We also stopped at a shop where argan oil and ...

... et au milieu d'une circulation qui ressemble à celle de Naples en pire(pour ceux qui connaissent). A Casa nous nous sommes arrétés à la mosquée de Hassan II. Gigantesque et somptueux !!. Mérite le détour même dans l'enfer de la ciculation locale. Ce soir nous sommes à El Djadida, ce qui fut le Deauville du Maroc à la belle époque. L'hôtel est ...

... fish about 3 or more metres long and a couple rounder thatn me! when we showed interest he decided to take us down to where a boat was being unloaded and about 20-30 men were standing around unloading and checking out the catch. we eventually got to the restaurant but there was no one there so we decided to give it a miss and go for the cafes on the beach where we had pizza and later some mint tea. cafe for pizza and tea

... me at the UW Memorial Union in Madison. She guessed right on my arrival time. Safe at home. So it wasn't really my favorite country to visit. And I can hardly recommend coming here if you have other options. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be as far as touts, thieves, and hassles, but it still was kind of boring after awhile. Turkey is a much more exciting place to visit. Speaking French would have made it much easier ...

... drifted in and out of consciousness, only awakened by a soft kick from the sleeping man sitting across from me. We groggily piled into taxicabs as the drivers looked skeptically at the map we had handed them. As he turned down a deserted dirt road, ridiculous fears began to take over and we urgently asked where we were going. With no answer he pulled further down the road and another man appeared. All ...

Cigarette selling Kids, Ramparts, Fish Market Restaurants, dirtier beach than Paradise, Asilah, 2 nights here, then meeting Emma in Marrakech. Was a mission getting a taxi to Marrakech from El Jadida. Had a problem leaving cos Tim got beefy with some mechanic guy at the Bus station. He said he was trying to help us. Tim thinks he was trying to rip us off and everyone started hating our guts. I think Fes might have been right.
