This adventure will be a combination of the old and the new. The "new" will be time spent travelling in Spain and Morocco and the "old" will be time spent with family and friends in England. We are mature independent travellers who usually like to do our own thing as the mood suits, but we are doing something a little different this time. The four week road trip through Spain and Morocco will be taken with our good friends Niki and Dieter from Switzerland. They (NiDi) have planned Spain and we (DiDo) - with input from our son Martin - have planned Morocco. Thanks goodness for e-mail. There has been a lot of coordinating going on!
We really hope that as our grandchildren grow up, they too will want to take chances, have new adventures and get out of their comfort zones. There is a big world waiting out there for them to explore. Travel will expand their minds in so many ways that cannot be experienced by staring at a computer, sitting in front of a TV screen or even looking at fantastic photos. They need to see the big picture. Maybe the tales their Grandpa Don and Nana tell will inspire them to "seize the moment." We hope so.
