Mediterranean Adventure

So let's knock this out. haha. I haven't been too motivated to get these photos up, but here they are. Africa. I was stoked. I then went. I have been. That is about how the story goes. We stayed in Tarifa which is between Gibraltar and Cádiz in Spain. It was beautiful. The place we stayed was gorgeous and great. We learned quick that was kind of too far for a backpacker, but we managed. We took a ferry to Tanger, Morocco and went on a tour.

At first it was great. We saw a lot of cool places. We rode camels - if you consider a camel standing up a camel ride. We ate a delicious Moroccan lunch and I had a beer from Casablanca. Later we endured a torturous couple of hours in a timeshare like sell-a-thon. We were separated from the group and hit with a berage of sales tactics because we are Americans. We sat and listened for 30 minutes while our tour guides friend tried to sell us rugs, and then, immediately after, we went next door where his other friend tried to sell us spices. Glad to go. Glad to be back. Awesome. Here's photos:

The beloved carpets. I wish I got the spices guy too.

Snake charming. An ancient art with a modern gym-bag flare.

I just thought the gas tank on picturesque beach was too ironic.

So that's it. I've been on another continent. haha. It was great.
