OMG! Wifi!!! (Ack! no message keyboard) More later

... about, I stumbled upon a very tres, tres chic hotel with wifi in the lobby! Thus, with my trusty little iPod I was able to swiftly log in here and post an entry. Easily entered the date 'n place, but... when I got to the interface for pecking the "Story" - alas for some strange reason my iPod (actually I believe it was a travelpod glitch) wouldn't bring up the keyboard so I couldn't type anywhere ...

Horse riding, fish market and a punch up

... both glad when it came to an end.

We wander back into town and decide that we are going to go and get a crepe. I have a banana and chocolate one. Alex realised earlier that she had lost her phone somewhere on the beach when we went horse riding, we all thought that she’d never see it again. By complete luck, my phone had been left on since we first arrived in Morocco and it started ringing – someone had found Alex’s phone – looked at the last ...

Overflowing with mint tea!

... and then walk round the walls of the city and the fortification and then we make our way over to another of Alex’s friends shop – Alex is greeted warmly, she introduces us as her friends and we too are welcomed warmly – the chairs come out and mint tea is on its way. A couple of Alex’s other friends arrive at the shop and we all sit for a while chatting – these particular friends speak good English, so we are able to join in ...

Seventh Day - Essaouira trip

... A popular old Russian song by Alla Pugachova, the light suddenly went down low for a couple of seconds and the show was over... It looked like synthesizer of a band member was burnt by electricity failure=( It was so pity...

So, as far as we ended our drinks, we went back through the night city, which looked wonderful at night... Then again we spent some time by the pool with some wine=)

The Gem of the Morrocan Medina

... need assistance planning your day (perhaps a hike to explore the lovely


Atlas Mountains?) or a babysitter for the kids so you can have a night out alone on the town.


The list of entertainment possibilities is endless.
Both within and outside the hotel's walls. Pace through the courtyard of Heure Bleue Palais
and let the gorgeous palm trees and breath taking fountain put you ...

Stepping back in time

... lovely room in Moroccan style. I felt like I'd never want to leave again. My first stop was Il Mare. A restaurant right behind the city walls but high enough to look over them. Ten days before Christmas, I was sitting outside on the roof terrace, enjoying a good lunch with a view of the ocean. It was blue skies all over and just pleasant. Was it really 3 days since I was walking through the snow...

Essouria, a restful change from Marrakech

... to dark. We walked past a the Ryad Mogador; Mogador was the name for Essouria prior to WW I. Eventually we reached the harbour wall to watch the sunset, which was rather spectacular. During watching the sunset we got up close and personal with the worlds largest seagulls. OK, I know they are not seagulls; but they look similar and you certainly would not one stealing a chip!After sunset we continued our exploration of the Medina; the vibe of which was very different to ...

De El Jadida à Essaouira

Journée avec un peu de route (environ 250km) et une étape intéressante au milieu. Aujourd'hui peu de culturel sauf en ce qui concerne la conchylliculture et les parcs huitriers que nous avons découvert en route à Oualidia. Notre ventre n'a fait qu'un tour et nous ...

Essaouria or Bust

SHE SAID: Woke up this morning on time, yeah. Had a nice breakfast, Moroccan style pancakes OJ coffee, at the hotel and left for Essaouria. Took a private taxi and headed for the coast. About a three hour journey. Passed through a rocky desert that periodically seemed to have cities in the middle of no where. Men gathered around hanging out in half built old buildings, riding mules with plastic strips (later found out used to make ...

CHAPTER 5 - PARIS-DAKAR? YOU MUST BE ENGLISH!

... here too! Our masseur takes us into the main hot room, and we lie down on the heated marble floor for about 20 minutes, just to loosen up our limbs. What then proceeds is something I would market under the name of "Combat Yoga", as the masseur clambers and wrestles with our limbs in various ways, so that joints are liberated from sockets, tendons from flesh. Its painful stuff, and I feel a bit like the lawnmower that's been sitting out in the back shed for 20 years at the hands ...
