Hotel Beautiful
The ferry crossing to Nador was about six hours and as we hadn’t paid the extra for a cabin, all we could do was find somewhere to sit. After having some lunch we moved to a lounge area. There was a TV in the corner showing what looked like the weekly lottery number selection. The number selection was punctuated with two kids chanting some sort of prayer in Arabic, in very annoying high pitched voices. This seemed to go on for hours, and me and Chris were both chanting along by the end.

Back to Morocco
Aserraregh
There are two routes leading to Auberge Les Etoiles. There is the long way, around the mountain on a relatively easy route used by most of the car and truck traffic. Then there is the short way, up a steep, winding trail with some worrying drop-offs to one side.
Arrival in Marrakech
After flying in from a very cool Amsterdam, first impression when getting off the plane in Marrakech is… phew, it’s hot 😎. The gauge reads 27°, and is untypically warm for the time of year.
This is the start of Chris Scott Adventure, a guided fly and ride tour around Morocco led by Chris Scott, the author of “The Adventure Motorcycling Handbook”, “Morocco Overland” and several other books.
