Our tour started and ended in Casablanca.. we choose only fabulous hotels, and Riads.. one proved very problematic due to the stairs, without rails, and no door locks… note to self!

This group of strangers from Sydney, New Zealand, South Africa, Brisbane, Beijing soon bonded to become life time buddies – the joys of travels! Oh what joy it brings me as well, to see the ladies find new friendships, and keep in touch, long after the trip is over!

Here’s a glimpse.. again.. 10,000 images..

Casablanca, Rabat, Fes, Marrakech, Essaouira and back to Casablanca..

A few of my highlights?.. sardine lunch in Marrakech with Galit and Leah, shopping in the Souks with Renata, Visiting YSL garden with Di, relaxed before dinner drinks with my friend Rossie, meeting and getting to know new friends from New Zealand, Sue and Vicki, and travelling with Lynne from Beijing.. but there were many, many more.. our accommodation was supreme. Our guides were knowledgeable and not boring.. the targine that Youssef’s mom cooked for us was mind changing! Finding the best shoe shop in Marrakech, why did I only buy 3 pairs? .. but hopefully we’ll be back in 2022.. yes.. dreams come true again!
