Leaving Morocco

Started early, 7 am! and drove the 50 miles or so to Tanger Med. filled up with fuel. 53 litres for 400 dirhams. The last tank of cheap fuel. Customs was easy as we've come to expect from this port of entry, they use a scanning machine for your van and after that it's straight to the ferryside!
We leave Morocco and look forward to new adventures in our lives. Today is the start of a new day.
Have a new day

Last full day in Morocco

Wow, it's time to leave. We will go in the morning, the 3rd of May. three months are up and onto Spanish earth we must step. We are ready for it. Whether we are ready for the weather we shall see but forecasts say rain ahead so we shall take what comes and work our way up through Spain over, well we are not sure, we will find out! But we are not going to rush through the country in two days as we have done before. A week maybe, Insha'Allah ( for the last time this trip! )
We left Moulay Bousselham in the morning and drove up to Larache, about 35 kms away. It's a fine and sunny day and we want to do some food shopping before leaving and also want to see a town and mingle with the people.
Larache has a bustling  market where we find all the vegetables we could want. Even a friendly veg seller who wants his photo taken with Krysia.

On we drive up the coast road to where we'll spend our last night. Asilah and the guarded parking next to the beach, where we have stayed once before. We stroll around the rather pretty and neat Spanish style streets, enjoying the relaxed atmosphere as the sun goes down on our Moroccan adventures of 2012.

And to close this evenings blog, a sunset taken not far from here on the 4th Febuary. Our first night in Morocco 2012, where it all started.


Hope you have enjoyed the journey too.

A day of rest

1st of May!
Truly a day of rest. I think between the flu-y thing, the driving and the imminent departure from Morocco, we need to have a day off from doing anything. I read all day, something I have never done before! Krysia too, apart from loading up a washing machine and hanging it all out to dry! The sun shines and the lagoon is buzzing with activity but we..........take it easy!

This boat looks like it needs a rest too. Unlike it, we will be back on form tomorrow ready to carry on towards Tanger. A day off has done us the world of good.


The van can be seen in the background, looking out over the boats. Pretty place to rest is Moulay Bousselham

lots of love
