Here's Looking at You, Kid.

Despite not feeling 100 percent today, I wanted to post and say that Morocco was awesome. I went with a two day SAS-sponsored trip to Marrakesh and the Ourika Valley, which is in the Atlas Mountains. Then, today I went with a group to the Hassan II Mosque, the second largest mosque in the world with a 600-foot-tall minaret and room for 200,000 people inside. We ate lunch at Rick’s Café, and, although it was built way after the film Casablanca that is set there, it was still pretty cool.

I’ve had a stomach ache since early this morning and the rocky waters and extreme swaying in my cabin, which is near the front of the ship, have not made it any better. But, we will be on the sea for eight days now until we reach Walvis Bay, Namibia, so once I feel better I will update you more on Morocco.
