First Days

We have well and truly begun now. First day was extremely hectic but we managed to get from London to Tetuoan without any major incident. However we have no plans to ever return to Tetuoan as we were told today that it is known locally as the robbers capital. Would of been useful if that little nugget of info was included in the guide book. Anyway we then caught a bus to Chefchauoan a lovely mountain town in the Rif Mountains and managed to chill and get our bearings. We are now in Fes after an eventful bus trip. About an hour out of Fes the bus ran out of fuel, now you think a bus company would be fairly astute at this sort of thing, but we sat around for about an hour while petrol was procured from the closest village. Fes seems a really cool place and we are looking forward to exploring the medina and kasbah over the next couple of days. On the food front I have just had pastilla, which contains pigeon meat, lemon flavoured eggs, rice and pastry. Leighanne is loving the tagines and the couscous (not as good as yours though Pete).
