We left at 9:40 AM with a 400 kilometer run to Casablanca. It went well and we ended up in the same hotel we started in 13 days ago. Somehow, the hotel looks like it has had a complete renovation while we were away!!!
No, it is just that what I thought was rather faded and shabby two weeks ago now looks pretty darn nice. We have stayed in many Hotels, Riads and Dars in the elapsed time and we did not realize how most had some rather poor workmanship no matter how nice they looked at first glance and in the photos. This is amongst the top two in my opinion, maybe at the top.
Of importance to note is that the last 200 Ks went like a flash, mostly at 120 KPH on a super divided highway of superb quality. Again, the infra-structure is ahead of the 'country' part of this amazing country. [If they could just get the darn food right!]
The day went amazingly well for all of us.
We get up very early tomorrow morning and leave for the Airport with ALL of our bags including the three that have resided in this hotel the last three weeks. The flight is scheduled to leave at 10:10 and we hopefully land in Vancouver at 8:00 PM Friday night. That will be 5:00 AM in our jet-lagged head. Lots of sitting and waiting in those 20 hours or so. Same scenario with Jim and Gail.

I am very much looking forward to cleaning out my Man Bag or Purse that I have had slung around my head and shoulders for the past two weeks and empting some of the contents, such as: Hand wipes, a bottle of hand sanitizer, a small toilet tissue roll, Imodium, [for others of course!], assorted pain pills, anti-itch pills, three Pepto Bismol pills loaned to me by Gail, and four sachets of an indigestion powder bought at a Moroccan pharmacy store.

I have no idea when I may get to post a blog, but you know me, if I can I will.
Looking down from our home last night.
These three leaving the rooms this morning.
Our guide at the hotel this morning.
The following photos were taken on the run in today. It was a local market spread out along the roadside so as we slowly passed along I just put the camera up and kept clicking. This is what I mean when the Government is ahead of the folks in the country,. Those cart parts sticking up in the air are the ends of donkey and pony carts.
Fellette at a pit stop this morning, chilly for a while!
