Well I have succeeded in uploading a few pictures :) it was hit or miss on selection due to not knowing what I was choosing. Enjoy

Back in Essouira after an amasing 4 day tour through south west Morocco. Sadly said goodbye to our wonderful driver and guide yesterday, but looking forword to some relaxation on the beach now. The boys ran us a bit ragged ensuring we experienced all of the authentic culture of this beautiful country. We spent a day with a close family friend of Ibrim's in his home in Tisnit. We were truly honored to be welcomed into their home for the day. Yesterday we met up with a couple nomad's tending camels south of Essaoira. I bravely tried some fresh camel milk. We visited a beautiful Oasis between Tarradannt and Tarfraout. They wanted us to go by "Berber taxi" (donkey) but having experienced 3 hour tour by camel, we chose to walk.

Back in Marrakech after an awesome desert trip. Camel (Ferrari) kicked Gary,
s butt in more ways than one! I believe I am the camel whisperer. The Kasbahs were an incredible experience and the Berber camp was the most perfect star gasing and sunrise spot on the planet. The bad news is that The computers I have had access to so far are not cooperating with my camera so you all are going to have to wait for those. Our Berber driver and Morrocan guide are too good to let go of so we have hired them to take us for a few more days to Taradannt, Tafraoute and more. Makah mushki, Jill and Gary

Salam alekum from marrekech

WOW, we have made it to Marrekech and had much travel adventure. Essaouira is very nice, I have eaten every kind of fish cooked many ways and quite by accident. Stupid on the road is our tag name. I am unable to upload my pictures onto this computer. I will try another way after the Sahara trek. We are having a wonderful time and the people hear are taking wonderful care of us even though they do not understand a word we say nor us them. We all try very hard though and have lots of laughs in the effort. Love you all, Jill and Ali Baba
