aaaand morocco

so last weekend we went to africa, making it the third continent I have been to in less than a month! Speaking of months, it was exactly one month ago that I was getting ready to get on an airplane and fly to spain!

Morocco was really cool to see, and not at all what I was expecting. I didn´t realize it was more of a Middle Eastern country than an African country. I was actually expecting alot more black people, I am kinda embarrassed to say. Fortunately the whole trip in morroco was organized by a tourist company, because I don´t know what I would have done there if I was on my own! It was cool because they didn´t take us to the most touristy areas-- instead they showed us what the life of a moroccan is like. We saw alot of markets on the streets where they sold lots of very fresh ingredients. VERY fresh, as in there were little stands with live chickens which were either popping out eggs to be sold OR waiting to be selected and killed ughhhh.

They took us to three cities, Tetouhan, Tanger, and Chef- Chouan (chances are, I spelt those all wrong). Tetouhan and Tanger were pretty similar, I thought. Chef-chouan was my favorite by far (and i think everyone on the trip agreed). Its a small town up on a mountain and almost all the buildings are painted blue. There are alot of streams coming from the mountains and running through the streets and in between house. It was very beautiful.

All the food was included, which was great. The food, however, not exactly my favorite. It was alriiight but after three days of it I was ready to return to my madre for some Spanish food (although i would have preferred a cheeseburger and french fries...).

They told us not to drink the water, which I don´t think I did, but somehow I still managed to get sick if you know what I mean!!!!!

OH i forgot to mention-- I also rode a camel!
