Horse and buggy
There were tons of hose and buggy drivers, especially in the square.
Off the bus
We had to walk a couple of blocks from the bus to our first stop. The tour guide told us not to let the veiled ladies put the necklaces on us. That's how they aggresively sold their necklaces.
More Atlas Mountains
on our side of the bus.
Atlas Mountains
We could see the Atlas Mountains in the distance.
Nap!
It was a long bus ride!
Lots of green
We really expected at some point for there to be some desert but there wasn't. Even when there weren't crops, they had grass growing.
Cactus farm
We saw a lot of these fields full of cacti. I think they're cactus farms, they're too square to not be on purpose.
Rest stop
We stopped long enough to get snack, drinks, walk around a bit and use the bathroom.
Farm land
We both thought going from Casablanca to Marrakech would be desert. We were very surprised it was all farm land! Very lush!
More rustic
On the outskirts of Casablanca.
Nice park!
A pretty park on the way out of town.
Having some coffee
This is more like it. Having a coffee outside!
Bus selfie!
Ready to go!
