Hello all
I think this computer might curl up its toes and die if I tried to plug in my camera, so excusez moi, mes amis, pas de photos! I am typing this on a French keyboard this time, which gives me the urge to scream... in French, bien sur! Also it is much easier to use the ! rather than the full stop so there will be even more !s than usual in this post, I suspect! Right, commence!
So first, how was Tacky Turkish Night? Great, actually! Tacky as advertised but a whole lot of fun: dancing, dervishes, belly dancing, raki... who could ask for more! set in a fake cave under a disco ball of all things (advertised as traditional... yeah right) So it was a great night and somehow an oddly appropriate ending to a trip that really was so much fun. I miss my group immensely.... hi guys!!! So far this group seems lovely too but I never believe that they could be as nice as the previous group, you meet such great people on Intrepid trips.
After Tacky Turkish Night there were many hours of transportation. Try this yourself, mes enfants: spend five hours on a local bus, overnight train where you get intermittently hot then cold depending on who was currently winning the window open v window shut game to arrive at 8am with very little sleep, run around a new city for 6 or so hours, then take two flights to a new city and see how it is that YOU feel! I have never, never been so tired! The man who transferred us tried to sell me a tour when I arrived and I was so out of it that I actuellement laughed in his face; mind you it was kind of funny if you think about it, trying to flog 45 Euro tours at 1 am!!!!
So Casablaca it is. To me, after Egypt etc it all seems très French and very civilised, there is a little bit of man hassle but not to the extent of Cairo, by any means. An amazing, obscenely large mosque, very modern women, great mint tea! I had tagine for dinner and I suspect that is the first of many... not that I am complaining! I have had many hours of quality sleep, too, which was very needed!!!!!!
Anyway I must go, sorry, more to come later.
Much love
