Here in Morocco if the people at the desk say: the bus ride to … will take 6 hours you must add another two and you will be close to the true… It took us 8 hours and 150 dirhams to come from Casa to Agadir – the big resort on the Atlantic coat of Morocco… We got small but clean rooms at Canaria hotel – just one block from the CTM bus station… They charge 45 dir per person in the twin room without bath. The hotel has nice patio.
There is not much to see in Agadir once badly destroyed by the earthquake… The beach is wide and nice. I was looking for the royal palace. There are two of them: the old and ond new one. Long walk… And then – dissapointment because both of them are hidden in the gardens and from the gate you cannot see any buildings – like in Rabat or Tetouan… Today it was even forbiden to take the picture of the guards at the gate (there were 7 of them – in different uniforms) Reason:
the king is here! So I enjoyed the strong winter sun and went to photoghraph two city mosques…
