Talk about fish out of water...

We prefer to spend the majority of our time as close to salt water as possible, but who can say no to an opportunity to take a gander at a small part of the interior of Northern Africa?

Upon arriving in Morocco we spent a few days in Casablanca before boarding a train to Marakech for the beginning of our trek with a pretty stellar guide. We had hundreds of miles to traverse whilst relaxing in the back of a van, thousands of questions to ask our new friend behind the wheel, and dozens of quick stops to make for photo opportunities, sustenance and sleep. At the end of a few days of motorized travel, we geared up with turbans and camels to brave the sands of the Sahara... and luxury camping.
