Winding down in Essaouira

---

Here it is - our last entry from Morocco.

Essaouira is a lovely little fishing village and the perfect place to unwind before heading on to the next stage of our trip - England.

Morocco has been an amazing country to visit it truly has and we are all glad we got to see and experience so much of the culture. On the surface the driving here seems crazy, especially in the cities, where you are sharing very narrow streets with donkeys; bikes; motor bikes, cars and people. But in reality there is a lot of order to the chaos and everyone knows their role. We have witnessed very few accidents - only one - and the cars are remarkably undamaged. Unlike Spain where most cars, even expensive ones; have scrapes and dents all over them.

Mind you, I do spent a lot of time looking out the side windows of the cars as I cannot stand the tailgating, they all travel inches from the car in front, especially when trying to overtake.

Chris, the movie photo is for you.

Cheerio - next stop - tea and crumpets!
