Day in the Desert: Part Deux

After the first foray into the Sahara, we went to the oasis town of Ouarzazate to clean up a bit and spend a night in a hotel. the next day we headed back out to the wilderness....on CAMELS!!!!
















After the camel ride, it was another night of camping...and this time it actually was camping. Once we settled in to the tents, Allison, Jeff and I went adventuring, and did a little rock climbing to watch the sunset. absolutely georgous, breathtaking, and exhausting. That night, we had tatine for dinner (couscous, meat, and vegetables), and then there was a bonfire for us. The next morning we headed back to the city on the camels, and went back to the same hotel to swin in the pool to cool off from the desert, and then get back on the bus and head to Marrakech for a night in the city before heading to Essaouira for the rest of the trip...
