WE ARE IN AFRICA


Well we finally made it to the dark continent. As you can see I am fitting in just fine. Here is my casual dress for when Rob lets me take off my full burqa. I also have to walk 15 paces behind him at all times and address him as The Big Cheese.

I am just joking. We are in Fes in Morocco, typing on an Arabic keyboard so qpologies for qny typos. The city is incredible, huge bustling streets, vibrant colors and even more vibrant smells. Rob blends in perfectly.



The people are incredibly nice and the food is delicious. Have a look at the videos and turn up the volume to get the sounds of the city. We will be sad to leave here in a few days.

Check out the history of Fes here (it goes back to the 8th century while most of the enormous medina is 13th century.



We are also adapting well to our new camp lifestyle. We have even learnt to hand wash our own laundry. Wonders never cease. Allah be praised

Seriously, that picture of you in the burqa is amazing!!! Quite a difference from you exotic video of gagging on some strange substance...which is my second favorite in this segment.
I love you!!
