Merinides Fes

... tonight but the chili that was put in the curry was not to everybody's liking. During the night the camp was filled with the sounds of Donkeys, sheep and dogs. Not to mention the constant stream of farmers walking past at all hours of the night and morning. At about 4am a farmer and his heard of sheep walked straight past our camp.



The Roman ruins of Volubilis were built at some time between 200-300AD. Most of us got together and hired a guide. He advised ...

... tiny shop inside the markets are where we sat and ate camel burgers! At first I didn't think I could eat it (especially when some locals in the same tiny room had huge platefuls of the meat) but after a few tentative mouthfuls it actually tasted pretty good (almost like an Aussie beef burger) and if no one had told me what it was, I would have just thought it was minced beef. We bought 1 kilo of bananas and 1 kilo of strawberries on the way out for 23dhs ($4-5 AUD). Got the bus back to ...

... the hard sell that, inevitably, came after the tour.  Our guide took us on to a herbalist that specialized in traditional herbs, where an extremely enthusiastic young chemist proceeded to extoll the virtues of a series of Moroccan herbs, spices, and extracts, some used for their beautifying, edifying, or aphrodisiac qualities ('this is traditional Berber herb, you make tea with this, no sleep, jiggy-jiggy!').  We passed on the jiggy ...

... walked further into the desert. We had been at camp all day, the Sahara boys move slowly. We cross a dry river bed and Jamel shows us the dry bones of a human, yeah right, they are from a sheep or goat. We did not make it that far and it started to rain hard with sand winds too. It was getting dark so we made a camp in the flat area in the middle of some higher sand dunes used for protection. We had to huddle up in thick blankets whilst the guys quickly whipped up a ...

... traffic lights he would ask the next taxi if they knew where it was but nobody knew. I tried to direct him with the map. He started stopping the Taxi and running over to people asking them where it was. This could have been a ploy to make a short trip longer but when we finally found the hostel it still cost less than two dollars. The Hostel in Fes is small and modern and decorated in a Moroccan style. They do large and cheap meals at night time. They also offer a ...

... made it there, first by riding in 4 x 4s then riding camels under the stars. WOW. I have never seen so many stars. It was like someone pulled back a second set of curtains in the sky. They were so close and extended so far. We slept in a desert oasis that night. There were all these really nice Moroccans who ran the place and we all stayed up late that night dancing to the music they played. So wonderful. Another thing i will never forget- THE COLD. It ...

... pulled my sunglasses over my eyes, latched on to Michael.s backpack and asked him to wake me up when it was all over. Pastries and other sweet and savoury things abound, as well, however, and it was a truly a feast for the eyes, as we passed richly scented mounds of colourful spices and herbs, baskets of mint and tea leaves, almond pastries, crepes and fresh fruit. Whenever the heat hit us hard, we would stop for a glass of sweet mint tea or orange juice - Moroccan orange ...

... in the store, but didn't want to pay. Richard just told the guy we only had 400 dirhams - and he sold it to us!! Sweet! Other people bought heaps more - we wanted more, but don't really need anything else. Everyone enjoyed the afternoon. Went to a dinner/show - classic Moroccan stuff - but really touristy. Guide and driver got lost on the way to the show so we were late. Meal was the same old stuff until the desert - or what we thought was desert ...
