Back from hols
May 10, 2006
I got back from Morocco on Sunday night, it was a really fabulous holiday, but I've only just got any free time since getting back! It was my birthday yesterday and I had a really lovely evening with Adam, and now I'm finally getting round to blogging. My website vanished while I was away.....it was the guys who host it's fault, and I was cross but now it's back at least!
Here's a quick summary in photos of my holiday:
We went to Casablanca where they have this amazing mosque:
We went to Fes, and looked at the crazy old tanneries in the medina:
We went to Meknes and ate lots of sweeties:
Then into the Middle Atlas mountains where we went hiking in the cedar forests and played with Barbary apes:
Next stop was Marrakesh where we hung out in main square eating yummy food and looking at the spectacle:
Then we took a 3 day trip over the High Atlas and right over to the desert, and rode camels out into the Sahara desert to camp:
We did a lot more too, I think those were the highlights....I also did a teensy bit of knitting on Gemma (obligatory knitting content!). It's rubbish to be back at work! I already can't wait for the next holiday, although I had so many treats on my birthday yesterday I can't complain :)

Happy Birthday!
Lovely photos! Morocco is one destination I'd love to get to. I like the desert shot the best, I think.
Glad you're back!
