Taroudant to Essaoaria

Note to self - don't EVER stay in the 1* Hotel Taroiudant again. Not sure what we expected for 20eur a night but it failed miserably! Anyway, it's an interesting town, we took a horse & cart ride round the city walls and managed to avoid eating in "my brother's restaurant". Funny how ALL moroccans have a relative who has a shop or cafe or restaurant somewhere nearby...

Mooched around the berber and arabic souks, but didn't buy anything except some biscuits. We're all fed up with moroccan food so figured they couln't cock up a margarita pizza TOO badly... How wrong we were... Can't wait to camp and cook ourselves again. Hotel in Essaoaria hgad better be good else we're camping on the beach!

This morning a brief visit to a tannery (which smelled better than the hotel and carpark), i succumbed to a shoulder bag and haggled for the fist time!!

Current location, filling up for the drive to the coast, 46 litres of diesel for £25...!
