Morocco

I brought Mehdi and Maria to the airport. They are on their way to Morocco. I wish I was going too. Morocco is absolutely splendid. The Belhassans invited Nick and I to join them last April. It was the best trip ever. There is nothing like experiencing a totally new country with friends and family. The country is amazing, the food delicious, and the people are the kindest.

Aba and Ama, Mehdi's parents, were wonderful hosts and awesome tour guides. I learned alot, well, whatever I was able to pick up in my limited French and even more limited Moroccan.

It was fantastic and I had the best memories. A few random shots to sum up my trip there. (I'm going to do a separate post on the food I ate later)
