Tethouan to Tangier

The main road was the busiest I’ve been on. Still not busy by UK standards, but lots of nice cars and lorries dumping their exhaust fumes in your face. Still, I’m here now.

Up

Been in Tangier for a couple of days. Tonight, I’m just packing my stuff up.

Apartment

Was super nice. Right behind the Castillo fortifications 5 min walk from the port.

Had 4 different rooms, a TV with English channels and nice fast WiFi. Showers were hot and I managed to do some laundry.

Breakfast

I had to sort out on my own. I went to the supermarket and the souk spent about 90 dirams. About £8.

Got some juice and milk, yoghurt, (beef) sausages, fried bread, strawberries, jam and cheese.

Tangier tour bus

For 3 hours or so of the day, I’ve been touring around on the Tangier tour bus. It took a little audio tour around town, then a longer separate trip further which took longer.

Hercules cave

I enjoyed sitting round doing nothing for a day. The weather is pretty poor.

When I set out tomorrow, it looks like I’m going to be up against poor weather again.
