Today our bus didn’t leave Morocco until 11 am, so we had some time in the hotel. Actually, Babel came on the TV and since neither of us had ever watched it we watched it. It is a great movie. After that we left for our drive back to Casablanca. It was a very long drive but not that bad. Let me tell you a little more about Morocco too. Toilets here are a little different, meaning that they are just holes in the ground. Needless to say it was a little difficult to use the restroom. Also, most restaurants just hang huge pieces of raw meat outside of their shop, and that is the meat they serve in the restaurant. I really didn’t eat much the last four days because of this fact and the fact that most food doesn’t really meet health codes. We made it back to the ship at like 5 pm and I hopped in the shower to wash off Morocco. I really enjoyed Morocco because it was so different from the other countries we have been to, even Egypt. Actually Morocco ranks lower on the list of developing countries than Egypt, but I found it much cleaner. One of the reasons Morocco is ranked lower is that illiteracy is at about 43-48%. That is a huge number and it is strange to think that for every 2 people you see on the street one can’t read.
We head back to America tonight and I am sooo excited to be home. See you in 10 days!!
The picture was taken right outside my hotel, I guess this is how the meat is delivered. Luckily I didn't eat any of the meat at the hotel!!
