hi , tried to tx you but something went wrong. just spent the last 12 weeks slowly driving from santander to the med near almanara then slowly down the med . just below torrevieja now at punta prima. only had 4 rainy days . several cool ones but mainly good ones .
had a computer play up . then got a another one but couldnt find free wifi as easily as normal. mind i dont go looking for it . if i switch on and get it ok. but dont go cafes etc . catch when i,m home maybe. cheers .
might get back to maroc one winter, miss the heat but glad of a change.
Hi funsters now in Tafroute - gorgeous. left Tiznit on the R104 all the way thru good road although last 20 kms are really a large car width - however luckily not much traffic, took 2 hours now at Camping Tazka - not bad although the whole area did not get back on the leccie until 3.00 this afternoon, weather gorgeous town lovely. Carole and Ken popped in on us at Tagazhout they had a super trip and was really nice to see them again. ttfn

Not been as hot here today - only 24C in the shade.
Had a jam this morning with some of the hotel staff. One had a guitar and another couple with their drums. The lad with the guitar wanted to try mine so I let him. Couldn't get the bloody thing back. I don't blame him though as the strings on his guitar were so far off the fretboard it was almost impossible to play.
He wanted to buy my guitar and asked me how much it cost. When I told him he gulped - I think it was the equivalent of several months wages.
Started getting a bit blowy about 4:00pm and got a bit dusty so we retired to the van.
Toad in the Hole for tea tonight - yum!

Reasonable Maroc wine available fron 4.50-5 euros a bottle, good stuff from 9. Spirits (named scotch blends and gins) from 180 MADS. Single malts from 260. Available in Carrefours, seperate dept, in main cities. Uniprix in Agadia and the odd indipendent such as Demitris` supermarket Oswaraztate (spelling? ) Haven't bought any beer but continental largers are about 40 mads a can in resturants.
Its there on sale but you have to look for it. Maroc wine can be quite good!

Our last day at Tagazoute. Had a fantastic experience. Especially want to thank Terry and Colin for bringing us together, from Estapona to here. Just sorry our trip is not to extended as per others for longer stay. Really don't want to leave but family illness forces us to go earlier than planned. However, what a fantastic crowd of Funsters we have met. No wonder this is the best Motor Home club anywhere. Love you all and special thanks to our resident musicians Simon , Graham and Ken on tambourine. Gonna miss such a great crowd of people. Our last night will stay with us for a long time. Thanks for a fantastic send off. Ron & Jeanette.xx

Another fabulous day yesterday. Went into town in the morning so Mena could get a hair cut and we were both happy with the outcome (about £4.00) got 8. 1/2 fresh sardines from the fish man (£1.20) and milk, butter , fruit and veg.(£4.00). Then back for beer/wine o'clock party at this magnificent Ethiopian camp site and to say farewell to 4 Funsters who will be leaving this morning. Brian, Ron and partners. (Have a safe journey) So, out came the guitars and before the night was out we had a few neighbors join us and sing along to Simon's Taghazout blues. Some sexy dancing too. All in all a great afternoon and evening.
I managed to heard some of the Funsters together before they got welded to their seats and as you can see a great bunch of nomads.

Party time, last night.
The beach was crowded yesterday, there must have been 100 surfers plus and many Moroccan families were enjoying the sun too. I took this picture after the sun had gone down and the surfers and locals had gone. It's great to just stand hear and take in the view.
Glad to hear that Colin/Sandra, I have not seen any myself and was just quoting information that had been given to me by another Brit on the campsite. Mind you, I do like quality red wine. Penfolds and Hardy's from Kangaroo land are two of my favorite labels. Let me know how you get on with it!

And t

And they were?
Only asking because there bound to be funsters who aren't with us (shame) who could use the info.
1. Yes. (more or less)
2. Same as here (dedicated emptying spot)
3. yes'ish bread man and very short walk into town where all produce and bits and pieces available.
4. Behind the new university
5. wait until middle of Feb when the almond blossom comes out. Whole area is stunning.
6. Both places worth staying at. If you don't like it you can always return to beach.
There you go. Looks like we will be here for another two weeks or so.......maybe longer if the fresh fish keep coming.

Though Tafroute is a Totally different Moroccan experience to Tagazoute Beach. Tafroute is a pleasant walk into the Town with it's many little shops and restaurants, the doughnut man is not to be missed as you would see by the queue by his stall, it's well worth a visit the Guardian area there is stunning with the Palm Trees and surrounding Mountains that change colour as the sun moves around in the sky.
Nah then namesake, tha's got location wrong, but close
. Tags aw reet for a neet or two, but eh, thes more to see in Maroc.
