Residence Fleurie Agadir

... as I paddled, so empowered (and can you believe brunette me managed to get blond highlights from all the sun??!!) I surfed alone, I surfed with others; I liked it best with others because it felt good to see someone smile so bright when they caught a wave.

--There were moments when I would be floating on my board, or having a sunset swim...I would look around me at the raw Moroccan ...

I haven't seen too much of Morocco yet since I'm working here, but it's got a magical energy to it. The feel of being in Africa, the dry desert land and mountains set against this wild and undeveloped coastline.  Yet at the same time, I feel rather closed up here being a woman in a Muslim land.  Covering when I go out, looking down to avoid the eyes of men; I feel as if I'm hiding my womanhood.  Yet it ...

... hotel Sofitel Agadir . They are all so unique; you'll want to visit each one during your stay! In addition to the hotel's six bars, there are four luxurious restaurants to choose from on the hotel premises. Treat your mouth to the tantalizing flavors of authentic Moroccan cuisine and don't forget to catch breakfast - it's included in your room price so you can fuel up for your day ...

... almost hot! So strange feelings, so cool... =) I am really in Love with the Ocean!

All red and tatooed, I returned to the hotel to eat something, and then we went to the hall to see the Morroccan show - there was a wedding as a show... But not such interesting, so soon we left to spend some time near the pool, all our group, sip some wine and talk=)

Tired after such a lot of sun, I soon left for bed.

... is normal.

Sud Bahia 3* - the hotel is the cheapest in Agadir. All rooms are sold though=). Old, but good, has very small territory with a little pool, but if you're goin' to watch Agadir, not lying by the pool - it's the best choice=D.

Club Hotel Al Moggar Garden Beach 4* - great hotel! It's territory is stretched along the beach line. The hotel is oldie, but it's in a good form. Rooms are spacy enough. The pool is interesting ...

... is not rich about the quantity, but a lot in quality) our guide arrived, and after everybody gathered in the hall, we went to look at hotel's rooms.

Rooms are not big, but very comfortable and cosy:) Besides the two sleeping beds, there is a little niche with a sofa, so the room looks so nice...

After lunch we took a bus tour around Agadir... The city is so great! There is a mountain Kasbah on the northern end of it with an ancient ...

... village with not much more than a few dogs roaming the streets. This whole trip already sounded more like an odyssey than anything else, until my luck changed for the better and a guy pulled out his car and drove me back to the doorstep of my hotel, this time the right one, and he didn't even want any money. How sweet! So I had a plate of Couscous and dropped into bed, happy but quite exhausted.

We arrived in Agadir after a couple of gruelling bus rides and one scare in which we thought wed missed our stop. My legs were past my head most of the way and I was able to cross another prospective career off my list, contortionism. We found a cheap hotel and walked around the tourist clad city. We spoke to a guy at the only surf shop in town and he gave us the run down on the area and surfing ...

... enormous boulders, and we discovered the large sea slugs that frequent the coves. Later, when we met a couple of local children playing catch with one of the slugs in the water, we discovered that the poor things bleed purple. They may even be an alternate source of the famous Roman purple dye. We thought it came from murex, but who knows? Later in the evening we grilled more sardines, and we sang songs around the fire, trying to find ones that everyone knew. Easier said than done ...

... tell u to look in the shop, everything is 'half price for english'. barteing was fun. i ended up buying a scarf i didnt want or need for that matter, just beacuase i asked how much, and felt bad when he showed me all these things.... i could have easily gone broke. luckily i caught on pretty quick, ddint make too many sudden buys! once u show interest, thats it, u have to buy.... or u get very annoyed shopkeepers.
