There's some good
walking around the area leading to excellent views and a number of
fit (and brave!) souls decided to give it a go - but not us! Instead
we said we'd walk into town and join them at a chosen hotel for a
group lunch.
So at 1.00 pm the rest
of us wandered down to the town, through the weekly market and
arrived at the hotel at the same time as the walkers. You would think
that 20 people descending on a quiet hotel restaurant all together
unannounced would create a stir, but the staff took it in their
stride and we all sat down to a pleasant meal; not the best we've had
in Morocco but very acceptable. Inevitably not everyone got what they
wanted and a few suffered delays in receiving their meals, but the
ambience was nice and the sun was shining. No alcohol though of
course.
Later in the day three
of the ladies went to try a hammam, the traditional Moroccan public
bath, which we were told consisted of a bucket of hot water with
which you washed yourself down. As many Moroccan homes lack “proper”
bathrooms, this is a popular way of getting clean. Sorry, no photographing allowed!!!
