The desert!

Today we woke up early to have a massive breakfast with all kinds of moroccan treats (including date syrup!). After this, a guide took us in his jeep and off we went into the desert. We had some nice views of the dunes and were recieved by some Berber people in their impressive tent made from goat and camel hair. We saw an old lead mine and visited a spot with quite some fossiles. We also had a little stop in the 'music town' with people originary from Mali and Sudan. We were invited to a house where the 'sans pigeons' were performing some music, and we danced with the host :) We came back to the hotel, had lunch and nap time (it was way too hot to do anything). In the beginning of the evening we went for a little camel ride into the dunes, to spot the sunset. Unfortunately it was super cloudy, but we still had a good time! Just when we came back, it started to rain and there was a lot of wind. We quickly went to our rooms and witnessed a sandstorm with rain! Nothing bad luckily, so we could rest from a beautiful day!Read more
