Travelled from El Jadibah up to Moulay Boussalem. This time we decided to take the motorway instead of the coastal road so that we could arrive at the next site in time to chill out for a while. And what a wonderful site it is for relaxing as we are overlooking a lagoon facing west and the sun will set over the sea. At least, it is peaceful now that the Moroccan fisherman has given up trying to sell us a boat ride to see the"one thousand flamingoes." A word of explanation: less than ten minutes after we had parked the van, the fisherman popped his head over the fence which separates the site from the lagoon [we are only a few feet away from the water] and tried to persuade us to take a boat trip to see "one thousand flamingoes." A shame, really, because if we had been staying another night, we would have taken him up on his offer. It wasn't expensive and he's only trying to make a living. Anyway, we quickly sorted the van, did a bit of washing, then changed into shorts for a spot of sunbathing. I lasted twenty minutes – there was quite a chilly breeze blowing!
We have had a text from Debbie to say that there have been terrible storms over in Spain and we may have to delay our ferry crossing for another day. I suppose there are worse places to be stranded! However, unless things look really bad tomorrow, I think we will be heading for the port.
Last night in Morocco, all being well. Cheryl and Andrew not feeling so good so we cancelled the idea of wandering up into the village for something to eat and cooked in our separate vans instead. Afterwards, we piled into Ralph and Valya’s van for wine and cheese.
