And so another adventure begins, this time with a good friend with whom I’d reconnected this summer. A phone call later plans were made and the next thing we knew we were boarding a plane for Casablanca!

We arrived early in the morning just as the sun was starting to wake up. As the plane taxied in towards the terminal I looked out the window to catch palm trees set against a pink sunrise. A hazy fog made the entire scene very magical and I wished my camera hadn’t been safely slowed away under the seat in front of me.

We settle into our hotel and head out for walk about our neighborhood and a nice lunch. Later that night we went wandering, getting lost but finding wonderful sights along the way.

Hot, roasted peanuts, the best ever!

A good start to our new adventure, we did get a little lost but that is part of the fun of exploring a new city. We made it back and fell into bed for a much needed sleep.
