... involved since her family is from Fez. I go to an internet café and wait for her relatives to find me. When they came for me, people thought they were undercover police the way they come in and take me. I had a nice Shabbat dinner with them and then the drove me back, and walked me into my hotel. They had the hotel owner call a taxi to meet me inside the hotel in the morning, which he did, and drove me straight to the airport, avoiding any further confrontation with the street kids.
Fes, Morocco aaronstimmel... the desert then back to mountains of a different variety. These of the dry and parched and dramatic Atlas range that look like nature's take on the Pyramids. All of this with lots of leg room, a table to type on, and huge seats. We LOVE train travel! There are a number of names of places in the world which the very name evokes feelings of mystery and a need to travel there. Zanzibar. Kathmandu. Timbuktu. And of course Marrakesh - next stop - here we come.
Fes, Morocco jenandjeffmilum... the evening we both took our fleeces and commented at how cool it was, then we spotted a temperature gauge and saw it was 23 degrees. I think we have fully acclimitised. The other good thing about yesterday was we discovered the alcohol shop, yey! Not only did they have cold beer (Flag Dutch beer brewed in Casablanca) but they had cold wine too! So having supped a cold beer and half a bottle of Morocco's ...
Fes, Morocco 50odd... during which I only sleep (fever makes so sleepy) and run to the toilet. Gonzalo's a little better and he takes a walk around the medina that afternoon by himself. He has a real good time getting lost inside the medina around a hundred times until he finally finds the "tenerias" (where they work with the leather). A guy shows him around and explains everyting (free). He then meets ...
Fes, Morocco monworld... really felt like we'd stepped back in time a hundred years. My introduction to Fes was when we stopped at a lookout point over the huge city on our way inside. The pictures are incredible and the city seems to spread out forever, enveloping the surrounding countryside. Majestic hills rose in the background. No skyscrapers, there was so little inherently modern by the scene that I felt I could have been staring at the city a thousand years ago ...
Fes, Morocco lar4290... modern. We were then allowed to wander around the shop and buy, if the fancy took us. This is where I came into my own and became known as a Berber for my haggling skills. I had practiced haggling on my previous travels and was very accomplished at it. This led to my fellow travellers requesting I accompanied them throughout the rest of the tour, when they were looking to buy rugs etc, to bargain on their behalf. Should have charged commission!

Fes, Morocco billybull... 263; je jedan lik počeo trčati za nama. Kad smo nasli neki hotel stali smo ispred i počeli nosit stvari prema hotelu. Dotrčao je taj lik i rekao: Welcome to the capital of hash, man! Ja reko hvala i tako počeli smo malo pričat i već mi je počeo nuditi hasis. U jednom trenutku sam ga pitao za cijenu, a ako pitas za cijenu to znači da ga se nikad nečes rjesiti dok ne kupis. Onda sam za vrijeme prijavljivanja u hotel kupio nesto ...
Fes, Morocco josip.kazalicki... town) which was double the space for half the price. The one positive of medina-living was that we were only a short stroll from a little restaurant which soon became our regular haunt. On a strip of restaurants that shall be aptly termed rob-the-tourists-blind-street, his was a tiny hole in the wall with a small 6 seater table awkwardly resting on the uneven street. While the surrounding restaurants had shiny green chair covers, oversized white bows, matching ...
