We arrived in Tangier at about 7pm, did the dance with a couple taxi drivers, and were refreshed to find the walk from our drop-off point to our hostel to be pleasant, quiet, and clean. We ended up staying at the northwest edge of the old city, which appears to be one of the nicer…

Chefchaouen, Morocco
Our bus to Chefchaouen on Wednesday was at 11am, so we were able to take breakfast at the hostel before heading out to catch a taxi. We knew that we needed to walk about 5 minutes from the hostel to outside the medina to catch a taxi and my idea was to use InDrive, which…
Fes, Morocco
We were greeted by a nice man at the door when we arrived at our riad/ hostel (Riad Verus) in Fes. We were given mint tea, of course, and relaxed in the riad courtyard before the hostel manager greeted us and checked us in. The tile work and colors in the courtyard are really beautiful…

Todra Gorge, Morocco

Surprisingly most of the roads in Morocco have been well paved and well maintained. Upon leaving Marrakech we took the winding roads…
Casablanca, Morocco
After traveling close to 24 hours door to door we arrived at our Airbnb in Casablanca. Marge and Ed dropped us off at Seatac about 2.5 hours before our flight out to Paris. After we got through security we made our way to the Delta lounge and promptly cheers’d with some champagne to the start…
