Morocco

The paint job we received from a Moroccan artist near Agadir.
A stop in the Sahara
In the middle of the Sahara stuck in sand between two bushes. Sand tracks, four-wheel low, and lockers do the trick.
In the sands of Erg Chebbi, Morocco.

Feeding one of the camels Le Petit Princess uses for its overnight desert journeys.

The rear lights from ELS provided reliable artificial daylight which assisted us in getting back on the road instead of spending the evening out in the desert sands (not that it would have been bad).
The local market parking lot. Donkeys are the transportation option of choice.
Armed with her experiences in India, Celine expertly negotiates the purchase of a few spices.

A very remarkable spice stand. In this market you get to try before you buy.
Re-enflating the tires after escaping the sand trap.
It was after nightfall before we got out of this mess.
What is special about this sand is that there is about 40 more feet of loose sand under the visible sand. Zero traction.
A slow process. Dig, place tracks, drive forward. Repeat.
While we waited for our pizza I decided to check out the kitchen. Nice!
