La Casa Amarilla Tarifa

... br>
BRIDES: We had just been touring the inside of the Colisseum in Rome, our tour guide filling our imaginations with stories of might and gore and blood and fighting and victory and defeat. All very fantastic and vivid. So as we emerged back into the tourist plaza, I was busy as usual, finding the light, looking for the great photo, admiring the stone features of ancient Rome. I caught a glimpse of a white dress, and then another, and another. I looked into the ...

... macht).
Schön ist, dass das meiste davon zu einem NaturschutzPark gehört, was man den Stränden auch ansieht. Sehr wild und naturbelassen.

Am Abend vor der Abreise fanden wir mehr zufällig die Altstadt von Tarifa (hätten wir uns besser informieren sollen?ok)….DORT waren all die Travellers, Aussteiger, Alt-Hippies und Einheimischen anzutreffen….in aberdutzenden von Bars, Clubs, Restaurants, Shops aller Art, Cafes usw…… Alles in enge G ...

... the head. I yelped with joy. We stopped for breakfast at a quiet cafe. I ate heartily while Carrie looked on with disgust. She pecked at a few pieces of bread while reliving the night in regretful humor. "Why, why, why, did we drink so much, but god was it fun. I'm gonna vomit." At the end of our meal, the server bade us wait, "Uno momento," and he came back with a flower for Carrie. We assume he gave it to her because she ...

... 27. It is 1,200 kilometres from Tarifa, and considering that I was doing 300 to 400 Ks a day on Moroccan roads, I should be able to do more in Europe...we will see. In Barca I'll meet Claire who at the moment is staying with our good friend Ale, the talented Italian dancer who has been hired by a Spanish company and moved there at the beginning of Summer. Final impressions of Morocco? Too many and too important to be crammed ...

... travel opportunities outside of a birthright Israel tour, a free 10-day trip to Israel from young Jews age 18-26, who haven't been to Israel before. The thought of a busy, crowded African country, and a Muslim one at that, made many of them nervous. Our tour guide, Muhammad, took us on a brief bus tour around town with a quick "drive by" of the functioning synagogue in Tangier's French quarter. Our tour leader hadn't made arrangement for us to get into the ...

... The great thing about the hostel there too was that everyone in there was speaking spanish, which i am not used to as most of the hostels up north are filled with aussies and therefore everyone is speaking english, but here its a mix of mostly europeans. in fact, i didnt meet one aussie in the 3 days that i stayed there. No doubt there would have been a couple, but everyone i met was from either Spain, Italy, more northern Europe (Austria, Germany etc), or South ...

... this would be scary without Abdul. Children playing soccer in streets and bands of roving teenagers show up by late in the day. The girls are turning heads. I'm walking well behind them and its fun to watch. One approx 16 yo boy walks into me with his head fully turned at KT as I'm filming. All day....we see only one group of 3 college age Americans. We do end up finding the same things Abdel was ...

... make my day.¨ Later, on the train from Marrakech to Rabat, we shared a compartment with two Moroccan-born Londoners, both teachers. They gently scolded the idea that people of another country would not be able to differentiate between America´s citizens and its policies, or at least have the ability to give individuals the benefit of the doubt. This was one of our very few in-depth conversations with other people (despite Lisa´s ability to ...

There's too much to say about our first day in Morocco. We arrived via an hour long ferry from Tarifa and found a basic hotel with the help of a tout. Although initially skeptical, and after surveying other lodgings, we decided to go with the place he was recommending. We were reminded a lot of China in the level of poverty and pollution although it is mainly rubbish on the ground as opposed to smog in the air. Moroccan towns seem to have a pretty standard layout ...

... being shooting stars, our perspective was set to thinking these were objects really high up). A long day was capped off with alien birds trying to abduct me. Sunday I actually got to see Cadiz during the day. It´s a neat little city. Karla and I decided to just have a lazy day at the beach. It was clear and sunny, but not exactly really warm (maybe 70). I still managed to get sunburnt in a couple spots where I missed with sunsreen. Despite the beach area being popular ...
