We had a lovely, interesting trip to Morocco. The last evening we celebrated with dinner at Rick's Cafe in Casablanca. Of course this is not the cafe from the movie as that was a movie set, but one that was created after the movie to bring folks back through that nostalgic time. We sat in the upper floor overlooking the grand piano a story below. A man dressed in a tuxedo played those tunes from the movie era. Ornate black lacy lanterns hung from the high ceilings with light twinkling through to set the mood.
We were treated to a salad of goat cheese and figs lightly drizzled with balsamic vinegar. Dinner followed with tender lamb chops.
During our stay in Morocco we learned you can live without a hair blower for a couple of weeks. If water is icy cold, it is OK to skip a shower for a few days too.
As temperatures dropped below 60 degrees FH and became uncomfortably chilly, blankets and all the clothes you can put on can keep you warm if you roll up cigar style.
Donkeys and mules can walk with a heavy load though a long narrow pathway without causing a panic to pedestrians.
Travel pants made of high tech material can dry by morning when washed out the night before. Jeans definitely not the case.
People of all walks of life can gather civilly on a bus to view other cultures.
If you are lost in the country side you can find your way back to the group.
Here are some photos of the group.
Happy traveling.
