16 Derb Bennani, Douh - Batha Fes, Morocco, 30100, 00212-35-74-05-84
... overlooking the main eating floor – beautiful architecture and Moroccan stylings throughout. We had a similar lunch as yesterday – traditional Moroccan cuisine, served in four courses: as starters, assorted Moroccan salads, both hot and cold (but other than dishes of olives, all the salads were different than yesterday), plus a sort of Moroccan spring roll; our mains were Tagines of beef ...
Fes, Morocco annalisamurrayOn our way to Fes, Morocco´s first imperial city, we stopped for a night in Meknes, which is another city with an incredible history! We were attracted by the description in our guide book that described it as being a typical Moroccan city, but without the typical hastles and hustlers looking to make a quick buck from the tourists. On the train to Meknes, we met a really nice guy named Iznar who had ...
Fes, Morocco mathesonduo... is veggie stew and mash tonight. After that I think we might snuggle up in the tent and finally watch an episode of Underbelly. Fingers crossed the battery holds out tonight. Oh and as for the kitten, turns out we're not god. We found it dead by the next tree up this morning. Poor thing... at least it didn't get hurled out of the tyre on a highway somewhere. Anyway I'm bloody freezing so time for me to sit by the fire and thaw out.
Fes, Morocco oliveramber... hands. There were lots of beautiful carpets but we did not buy any because we are traveling. But when we stop traveling I want to get a blue Berber one that I saw - it was nice! I had cous cous (cous cous is like tiny pasta/rice - they eat is with lots of things) for lunch and lamb kebabs - our guide could not eat because of Ramadan, but he found us a nice place to eat. And I tried some of the candy on the street. So far, I have not ...
Fes, Morocco zolabI left the hotel in Tangier around 8:00 am. I was going to do the 3 km hike to the train station. It was drizzling when I set out. I only got about half a km when the heavens opened. I had to get a taxi for the rest of the way. My plan to catch an early train was dashed when I got there. The next train out was not until 11:00 am. A boring two and a half hours wait at the train station. The new shiny train station is in the new part of Tangier. There was nothing around it ...
Fes, Morocco anywherebuthere... est au bout du monde" qui a gagné, à la fin. A savoir qu'au moment ou nous n'étions plus qu'à un tournant d'arriver, nous étions encore à une heure de l'objectif. Criss. Concernant la sensation, car j'y ai quand même songé longuement, de l'effort-douleur qu'on ressent en grimpant une montagne avec du lourd sur le porte-bagage, sur un chemin qui tourne sans arrêt en te bouchant la vue (tu peux pas savoir si ça va finir par finir ou si ça continue sur 2 ...
Fes, Morocco mig.qwerty... ankles. Next is the tree lined boulevard which by the afternoon will be swarming with little boys on roller blades, but during the morning the only thing I have to watch out for is the fish cart; and the strays that follow it. Next up is the hotel with all the tourists and tour buses that show up there everyday, and everyday I feel a bit more alienated by them. Maybe it's just I've been so immersed in the culture, and I ...
Fes, Morocco fsofield... supply of westerners studying Arabic language and culture (double figures now, new folks every day). Bear in mind that people who choose to study the culture are frequently positively disposed to it so I am getting the "best possible" scenario provided to me rather than a stream of invective. That's my department. I know our media likes to portray all the crazy stuff in the Koran (Qu'ran for the pedantic) as the source of all this stupidity. The great tragedy ...
