And off we go again

Summertime

 So we left first thing on Friday morning, with the sun shining and our beautiful home in all its beauty. Early Summer is here and yet we are off on our travels. Morocco bound. Another adventure. Well, why not. Tom here would agree, that life is one big adventure. Dive in and swim with the flow of the Watercourse way. As best we can isn't it Tom. A few tears will be shed along the way but hey, that's life. A lot of laughter will be had too and then there's the mystery of it all. What an amazing mystery this life is. Yes says Tom. But it's so exciting ! Makes me want to jump up and down, and so we all should. All together now............. Jump !
We stop at Bristol for a picnic with our Jaimie n Storm, Ami, Tim and Tom. Saying our farewells before heading off for the port and an overnight sailing to Santander.
Summertime, here we come.

Krysia kicks off the trip with a fine study of lorry drivers at rest. Doing what they do best on ferries. Talk and enjoy themselves before heading off on the road to wherever they are going, over and over again.

 We drive through Sunday until we are tired and stop for the night in a quiet sevice station, waking up in the morning to the sound of wild birds and a blue sky full of promise. We're on the road again.

We arrive at Palmones, near Algeciras with the end to our exhaust having fallen off mid Spain ! Yep, we're on the road again. It's also a bank holiday here so nowhere is open other than the ticket office for our ferry, so we buy our ticket. On Teusday morning, first thing, we try to get our exhaust fixed but it appears that welders here do not like to get dirty so we give up and catch our ferry. Morocco will sort us out. Through customs and on to Assilah, the start and finish of many of our journeys here. An almost empty campsite and a familiar guardien, Abdul Salam, we are welcomed to this tranquil campsite. An early evening walk around town reminds us why we love coming here. It's amazing, honest. The hustle and bustle of friendly folk, buying and selling anything and everything. The sights and the smells of all walks of life, not hiding who or what they are. Mmmmm

And on Wednesday morning, a welder comes to the campsite and escorts us to his back street garage and easily mends our exhaust pipe. Job done, no fuss. Khalil does a fine job for a great price. We are back in Morocco and glad to be here. So lets have a rest before ............ ?
