Off to Morocco!
October 9th, 2007
Okay, everyone, we’re off yet again! This time it’s a two-week trip through Morocco, starting in Marrakesh and ending in Fes.
We’re traveling with a group from Mountain Travel Sobek, going on their Morocco Camel Trek!
From their website,
The kingdom of Morocco is one of the most exotic of travel destinations, made even more romantic by the sensuous mud-and-clay architecture of kasbahs, the ambiance of palace-filled medieval cities like Marrakesh and Fès, and the spell cast by the mystical landscapes of the Sahara. With trip leader Kristy Larson you’ll experience it all, from meeting Berbers in remote villages and four-wheeling remote back roads to taking an adventurous four-day camel trek across the sands of the Sahara.
This is a true camel trek with all the magic of the Sahara, but with options to ride in vehicles or proceed on foot. Cobalt-blue skies, squash-colored sand dunes, lush fertile oases, and serrated mountain summits fill the vistas, and with the grand solitude and silence of the Sahara, and nights spent under a luminous starry sky, you’ll feel the mysterious power that the desert has always had over the human soul.
It sounds good on paper, at least! Wish us safe travels, and I’ll be back online soon!

Hey guys,
Hope you’re having a great time. Look forward to the reports and pictures when you get back.
Seeing as how you’re such avid travelers, perhaps you’ll both be up for an “H+P” trip in 2008!
Safe travels.
