... man after his bath with the locals. Apparently you go into a big room and they put local soap all over him and scub he said that a layer of skin came off and then they put big buckets of hot water all over him to make him clean. As I could not go Mohammad brought me back some local clay that you mix with water and put on your hair to make it really clean and nice so will have a girly night when we get home and we can try it out.<br><br ...

I only have 2 so far - starting w/ my 1st ever in South Africa 5 years ago, followed by a sweet blue and yellow "Om" symbol from Bali ), I was understandably eager to add a permanent Morocco tattoo to my ...

... we were sore from the horse riding earlier, but it was most, most agonizing. I really did laugh &#8211; John was on a camel behind me and all I could hear were mutterings from him about &#8220;my legs were never meant to stretch this wide&#8221; and grunts and groans with every lollop of the camel &#8211; they are quite ungainly creatures and John was feeling every footstep. It was a whole new level of uncomfortable for him and I could do nothing for laughing! I think we ...

It is a friendly city where you can peacefully stroll through the streets without constantly being hassled by vendors. I checked into Riad Baladin, a wonderfully restored old house with a central courtyard and ...

Day of travelling today, but good travelling. Left about 9am to head to Essaouira on the coast. Stopped for a couple of hours at Agadir which is a beach resort town, where we picked up some supplies for a picnic lunch on the beach. Finally started to defrost - this is the weather that I expected in Morocco! Stopped off to take some pics of goats up a tree eating Argan tree nuts - the Argan tree is apparently only found in Morocco, and ...

Dream Rating: &nbsp ; ; ; C+ Background: The night was the first of two spent at a campground across the road from dunes behind the beach just outside of Essaouira, Morocco.
