Run to the sun….

Wind picked up in the night and still going for a day or two, everything packed away as some people didn’t and wandering round the site trying to find there stuff…
Can’t sit in the van as it’s too hot and didn’t sleep much last night as it was warm … sat on the front cafe having my mint tea…
It’s a right desert sand storm although these pics won’t show it…

Smiffy, a desert sand storm can be called a Shamal if you didn't already know.
 
Sure I saw one of these go past in the wind a minute ago…😎

Is that like the ones you put plain water in a container and with the fan blowing air over it, it helps to cool the air? If so I don't think I'd want to use wee. 😱 Unless of course you're taking the urine. 😄
Any fan will help evaporate your sweat therefore cooling you down, regardless of the air temperature, a bit like blowing on hot food or liquid, the breath you breath out is warm (approx 98.6°f or 37°c) but yet it still cools the food or liquid that we're blowing onto....
When you captain boats around the world you learn all this rubbish for possible changes in sea states caused by warm or cool winds 😉
 
I try not to put too much negativity on here but last night was bad….

Got onto a site in Blanes, on the front so a nice sea view of sorts leccy included and I paid for Wi-Fi as I wanted to do some updates that can only be done on Wi-Fi….

Anyway nice long shower is called for so off we trot to the block and light sensor comes on as you walk in and right at the end is the disabled shower, undressed push button for hot water, warm up steel seat get on and one of the steel slats broke and I nearly collapse through the seat. Bugger I thought but balanced myself and soap up and the fecking light goes off…🤬 it was absolutely pitch black as I was right at the end of the block, couldn’t even find the push button when the water stopped…
Place is deserted so no rescue forthcoming.

I eventually get rinsed off and get back into my chair and go outside the cubicle and start waving around and yelling like a banshee in case the lights might be sound activated also…😆 lights come on and I go and finish up… sat outside waiting for Cintia and her lights stay on for the duration..😒

Back at the van and tried doing my updates and Wi-Fi is crap… half an hour later at 8.30 the electricity trips..

Anyway a lovely sunrise this morning as I was woken by the dripping of water (dew) from the trees on top of van… will go for a nice long walk along the front….☀️😎

Did you get parking in Essaouira The Boofles ? The last 3 years it's been impossible to park near it except for the big Carrefour
We parked up on one of the side streets off the main road in - just for the day - so a short walk in to the medina. Carrefour was rammed yesterday afternoon, French and German mainly. We stayed last night at Moulay Bouzarqtoune a little further north of Essaouira on guardian parking for 20MAD - nice little spot right on the beach.
 
Says it’s 27c in this van and I’ve got the maxxfan on….🥵😩
