... peaceful, generous and humble I become. I love this life! Safi This morning I woke up in Safi and walked for about ac kilometer to the fairly empty beach, hidden beyond a huge industrial complex. I wandered to the rocky side of the beach and found myself surprisingly calm jumping over rocks away from civilization. The sea was having a fun day hitting its waves against the rocks. An hour later I walked back to the medina, where my hotel was, and found a ...

... Leave it to me. We left Casa via CMT bus for the trip to Oualidia, where, with a population of ...

... He's a 49 year old, ugly, toothless Moroccan man, who looks at least 79. He has a 23 year old wife and young kids, but lives alone in a tent on the roadside. He was the guardian of our vehicle for the night. When we had arrived in Oualidia we found our campsite deserted and under water, so ended up staying on the roadside with this ugly, toothless man guarding us. It was actually a great deal, dirt-cheap and we had a great view, as we were parked inches from the sea.

... sardines for about a buck for 5. We got a few stares and I videotaped a bit of that restaurant scene. Great atmosphere. The day before we went to a nicer seafood place that had a religious theme. Koranic verses played in the background and the walls were decorated with more verses spelled out in ornate fonts on plaques lining the wall. But my favorite dining spot was the snail salesman. Fresh escargot! Each night this guy set ...

... an abundance of fish with excellent service all for small amount of 60 dirham. After dinner we went to Taros Bar for a bit of local entertainment. We had the pleasure of watching Summer's Moroccan boyfriend and soon to be husband Yassen perform in his band. Great music and a lot of fun. I was very tired and headed home with Cheryl at midnight. The locals are very friendly. Very easy to chat to the locals here.

We awoke at 6.30am in readiness for our 4 hour trek up the mountain to the Holy Rock. The trek was made increasingly difficult by the sand storm rolling down the hillside. Nevertheless, all of this trekking is helping me with my Inca preparation. It was also made difficult by the donkeys, thin trails and loads of tourists. It was stunning scenery and this in itself made the trek up the hill worth it. I was feeling very ...

... pictures of the port area and stroll along the lovely beach. That evening we found some sort of community building where an awesome band was playing! Foreigners, locals, and even little kids were crowded in the room dancing and enjoying the lively Moroccon music. The next day we had to leave because we had both purchased flights on the 20th of June leaving from Spain and we wanted to spend a little time there too. However, we had a few hours in the morning before ...

... Singapore! Anexo del dia 13 de Mayo: Seguimos en Essoueira y casi salimos de vuelta para Marrakech, hoy nos tomamos un taxi hasta una villa a unos 6 km de aca, donde hay unas piedras en el mar que se dice inspiraron a Jimmy Hendrix a componer el temas "Castillos de arena" una de sus famosas canciones, cuando nos bajamos del taxi nos dimos cuenta que la villa tenia unas 20 casas nomas y que la playa estaba muuuy ventosa, por suerte ...

... with our digital cameras, taking photos of some of their poor means of donkey transport. But everyone here has been overly nice, we just have to watch that we get the right change when we buy something because sometimes they forget... Essouria is nice, it is filled with markets and a load of tourists. Expect a fair bit of hassle when you walk in with a backpack on. There are promises of large rooms with bathroom, kitchen, and balcony overlooking ...
