I know but like you have said before can you handle taking a gorgeous puppy then losing it at the border if you get caughtToo cute. I nearly closed the van door.
Wouldnt get caught.I know but like you have said before can you handle taking a gorgeous puppy then losing it at the border if you get caught
Don't tempt me!I have to tell myself I can help more individual dogs if I don't tie myself down with one right now. One day though...Wouldnt get caught.
In total I'm aware of 5 dogs that came out of Morocco with people I met there last year.
That's why the do all the paperwork and checks on dogs in Spain before you go to Morocco because no one pays the least bit interest on the way back in to Spain.

Had our eye on it but it was shut Monday night when we went for dinner and tried yesterday lunchtime when it was meant to be open but it wasn't. Restaurant opposite it is pretty good and was packed on the Monday. Next time!If you're still in Sidi Ifni, the Nomad Restaurant is excellent, and you can have a bottle of Wine with it.

Just got back from surfing what absolutely epic views and those boulders just enormous. Photos later.
Nope! Is this re cutlery? I have always used my fork in my right hand as to me it always made more sense as I use my fork much more often than my knife and actually most of the meals we enjoy don't even need a knife (pasta, curry, stir-fry) Never understood why people would switch their fork from left to right depending on what you're eating.helen, are you left handed? Just asking like.
Mostly deserted roads (passed by a couple of cars in 3 hrs!) a bit of dirt track and a couple of fun rocky bits around the painted rocks.How was the cycling was it off road or on quiet roads?
The Atlas Mountain Race will be passing through Tafraoute in a week or so's time
I am loving following you Helen and Paul. Photos please of the starsWell we're really loving Tafraoute. Wish we had a bit more time here but we only have 10 days left so need to make tracks if we're going to fit the desert in.
The town is only small but much smarter than most we've seen in Morocco. It's a really quiet and peaceful place generally and the countryside is lovely and far less rubbish.
Today we got out for a good long bike ride, 27 miles, 2100ft ascent. A nice big loop out to the blue rocks.

"The Painted Rocks are one of the most memorable parts of the granite landscape of Tafraout. They were painted in 1984 by the Belgian artist Jean Verame as poetic artwork embodies attributed to his late wife, assisted with the help of the Tafraout fire department, 18 tons of blue, pink, red, and black paint were used to create this remarkable work of art, which today constitutes an open-air museum, with its sheer magnitude and unequaled artistic curiosity, which draws numerous tourists to the region."

Met a local guy who told us it takes 50 people 30 days to repaint them every 10 years.

This afternoon we got packed up and drove 5 minutes to enjoy a bit of semi 'wilding'
It's actually guardian parking but doesn't look like it and reminds me of something like burning man festival or the documentaries I've seen of American snowbirds parked up in the desert (slab city?)
Amazing surroundings and dozens of vans dotted about but loads of space between vans

Hopefully see some good stars tonight.
My friends doing it, he's a bit of a masochist but is looking forward to the challengeOur friend in Marrakesh is doing neutral support for it but unfortunately we’ll be the wrong end of the High Atlas to see any of it. Not that there’s much to see in an unsupported endurance bike race!
They were brilliant but still too many lights from the town and road nearby so will try to get some pictures when we're in the dessert.I am loving following you Helen and Paul. Photos please of the stars
It's not so much switching the fork it's somehow more needing the Dominant hand to work the knife.Nope! Is this re cutlery? I have always used my fork in my right hand as to me it always made more sense as I use my fork much more often than my knife and actually most of the meals we enjoy don't even need a knife (pasta, curry, stir-fry) Never understood why people would switch their fork from left to right depending on what you're eating.
Not sure what your route is now but the road from Zagora to Ouazarzate is very scenic without being quite as dangerous as the high atlas pass.
Btw, even though the weather is probably good where you are if you are desert side I would recommend keeping an eye on it because you can get heavy snow on both the high atlas and the Rif mountains. Its quite a long drive round.
I can recommend camping Les Pyramides in MerzougaWe’re driving to Merzouga via Zagora rather than Ouarzazate and keeping an eye on the weather further north. Rain on the horizon later this week!
We’re leaving early this morning after a fabulous park up just on the outskirts of Tafraoute. We’ll definitely be back here for longer next trip. It’s been ace.

Ali is a great host and his campsite is one of the very few that's actually in the desert as opposed to a walled area, he also does nice food there too, his Berber omelette is great
(Oh and great star gazing too )
