School Children, Rabat
This is the school right outside our window in Rabat. Every morning, we hear them sing the national anthem at 8:00 am. If we are still in bed when we hear it, chances are we are taking a taxi that morning. Good thing the taxi to school only costs us 10 dirham ($1.25) Last Friday we left for a marathon trip around the South of the country. Many hours in the bus brought us to beautiful hotels, vibrant cities and the most diverse yet stunning natural beauty I have ever seen. I appear to be allergic to charging camera batteries because after replacing a lost battery charger before departing I have now lost my camera battery. Thus this post is missing pictures from our last and possibly most beautiful stay, a very nice resort on the hem of the Sahara's flowing robe of sand. If Roger can get his pictures uploaded then I can post pictures of the group riding camels to sunrise in the desert, our trip back through what eerily resembled the American South-west (or Spaceman Spiff landscapes if you are a
Calvin and Hobbes fan), a visit with to a rural village's traditional mill, a stone-skipping contest with local kids and finally a battle to the bloody end with the hordes of flies that invaded our bus while we were visiting the small village. Until then, enjoy!
