Hello!!

Yesterday we travelled from Fes to Rabat, which took just over 3 hours by train. It was good to be back on the coast where the sea breeze meant the temperatures weren't quite as hot as in Fes. We were both a bit underwhelmed by Rabat though, which despite being the capital is more of an administrative centre than anything. The med...

School started a week ago today. Amina and I go to school together, and we take the bus, which has a tendency to get a little crowded at times. And let's just say, people in Morocco don't shower as much as we do, so the scents can be a little.....different. We took our placement test Monday morning, and after being up all day Saturday and Sunday...

Salaam! Well, let me preface this entry by saying that I haven't slept since leaving Chicago - I've been up for 33.5 hours so if I sound a little "off" that's why. Spent last night flying to Paris, spent this morning on a lay-over, and arrived in Rabat this afternoon on time at 1:30pm local time. Several members of our group were on the same leg...

Hi guys! Here are all of my photos from our lovely trip! Keep in touch, Laura

Had a great sail from Gibraltar to Rabat, leaving the straits we did 8 -9knts, no engines, so lovely. The next morning was very calm and pleasant but little wind and so we had to motor all the way.

After the medina, went exploring the kasbah - you can start singing the song now... beautiful blue a...

Alright. I've been putting off the decision for the past week, but I think I'm finally ready to commit; I'm going to write a blog. I'm willing to bet it will be irregular at best, but It's worth a shot. The chance to ramble in English sounds pretty attractive right now, as I'm taking a break from trying to cram a couple weeks worth of Arabic les...

Finally I'm back to civilization, I'm in Rabat! I decided that it was already too long in Chouen, plus it was starting to get very cold, so took a bus to Rabat. The bus was a real raw experience! From Chouen to Rabat is about 250 kms but by bus took SIX HOURS!!! A kind of bus that, talking about safety standards, wouldn't make it in any of the E...
