Driving back to Sweden. “Only” about 3000 km…

  We woke up in the morning, realizing we had been parked about 50 meters from a huge beach. (Well, we heard the waves all night, but we didn’t actually park on the beach…) Driving home from Spain took 5 days. The first night we found a little forest close to Burgos. It was super […]

Last day in Morocco – returning to Europe

October 24, 2017November 5, 2017 Bengt Leave a comment Charity, Morocco, Travel, Uncategorized, Volunteer

So, the day came when we were done with Africa for this time. We got up early as usual and drove via Chefchaouen – the Blue City – to Ceuta. Almost. Well, we got there, but the last kilometer into Ceuta (which is actually a Spanish enclave) took us 8 hours. We found out later […]

Fez (October 22-23) 

October 23, 2017November 5, 2017 Bengt Leave a comment Charity, Morocco, Travel, Uncategorized, Volunteer

After seeing vibrant Marrakesh we also wanted to see one of the most legendary,  original and oldest cities, Fez. So, after a nice breakfast we drove to Fez (via the fast toll road passing Casablanca and Rabat). After a quick shopping stop in Carrefour, we found the camping place Diamant Vert conveniently located just a […]

A day of relaxation and exploring! We spent the morning by the camping site pool. (Relais de Marrakesh). Around lunchtime we headed into downtown Marrakesh and the old Medina. We parked by an old mosque and ventured into the Jemaa el Fnaa square and onwards. Some person guided us to the tanneries of Marrakesh, we […]

We got up at sunrise as usual and spent the day driving through a winding mountain pass road over the Tizi N’Tichka pass via Ait Benhaddou. Wonderful views and lots of exercise for the steering wheel as well as the accelerator and brakes!

Mhamid to Foum Zguid (Oct 19)

After a good rest in Mhamid we set off though a second day in the Sahara. Highlights were of course the dunes of Erg Chigaga, the Sacred Oasis, and driving across the huge Lake  Iriki, fortunately dry. If there has been rains, it can be horribly muddy we heard.

Resting in the Sahara

We decided we liked Carrefour des Nomades so much that we just had to stay one more day and night. So October 18 was spent by the swimming pool. 🙂

From Erg Chebi to Mhamid 

October 17, 2017November 13, 2017 Bengt Leave a comment Morocco, Travel

Saying goodbye to the desert was sad, but we knew that we were going to see one more in the trip. We left early and headed out to the stony desert roads. There were no roads actually, only tracks (called “pistes”). We crossed dried up rivers, lakes and had a good time going anything from […]

Woke up early and drove to Mohammed in the Blue Well where he had made us breakfast. Then a short drive to Merzouga where we met Bernhard and Wioleta and took a long tour in the sand dunes, where we also spent the night under the milky-way. Actually, I took the opportunity to ask Eveli […]
