So I have lots of updates to do, which will be done over next few days... in summary. Green apple sorbet is the best, I got henna and one hand is black and the other is natural/brown... she wouldn't believe me that I didn't want black and I had a reaction to it already. Djemma el-Fna has many interesting characters. I deterlined that there is a guy here for my lil stinky persian! yay.. he's your age too. You have frequent flyer miles or it could just be your online bf. Went to the hammam? felt so refreshed. Eating fresh even [View Full Entry]

We took a turquoise petit taxi to the Medina area. It was just over 10dh, we beat the night-time double fares. e looked over a few hotels and Hotel Regia seemed like the best bang for our buck. It's 100dh/nite for 2ppl so it's really not much at all. Wnted to try a hammam but that didn't happen. Maybe I ill get up early enought tomorrow. My hair is BEGGING to be washed, yuck, I know. Oualili is still on my list of places to see. Our hotel offers hot showers for 5dh. He told me the roof was closed when [View Full Entry]

We got to Amsterdam and had trouble with the lockers (6 euros). Sam found one of the airport people and he reopened the one we paid for and we were on our way to Centraal Station, no one checked the ticket we spent 6.9 euros on, but maybe we can use them on the way back? We didn't end up with anything expect pictures in AMS. We exchanged our money in US so we didn 't use any exchange there. A lady did say they were changing 2euros for 10 dollars which was crazy!!!! We had pannekoeks (crepes). I got one [View Full Entry]

Well we landed on time. Our flight from NY got a lil bit of a late start, but we made AMS on time as well. The train to Casa -Voys was leaving so we splurged and paid 80 dh on train for 2 tix. From Voys we got on train to Casa-Port, why stop in Casablanca if you don't see the mosque. The petit taxi we got at the train station left us like a 20 min walk from mosque, it was worth the walk though. Have to post pictures a lil later. Our train was leaving for Rabat until 930 [View Full Entry]

Its spring for some of the lucky kidlets in this hemisphere, I don't believe the 8+ million inhabitants of NYC have gotten the memo. I haven't received my myspace bulletin either. Either way its sunny so I'm going out on journey to the faraway land known as QUEENS. Yes its on the same island as Brooklyn but it's still far! (I'm from Brooklyn if you haven't gotten it). You've got to walk to the train, wait for it(it's the weekend people) and who know when one will arrive. Once on the train you hope that nothing happens to delay transport to [View Full Entry]
