How Long Can Someone Serve In The Army

Aguinan Tafraoute 26-10 27-10 28-10

Photos of the day
Tajine looked excellent but merely rice. . We shared the table with a French couple and their daughter. They travel with an old 4x4 TP3 converted into camper. They are in Morocco for some time now and seen their wanderings, they take their time enjoying the country before going down in West Africa. Compared to our pace, it seems to do the Paris Dakar, this thought-provoking, each trip, but I like them well.

The night was still rough for me, Patrick, has taken the bull by the horns. The start is still laborious. It drags on the terrace watching the kids who pass the cottage to school. Breakfast, ligth for me, and it took off slowly. We pass through two earlier the palm which is really great, people greet us all along.








The trail that climbs out of the valley is nice and offers a beautiful view over the village and palm grove. I think at TP3 on the descent, do not be afraid.


The trail then leads us to tar Taliouine. Tank of gas, oil supplement. Opposite the station, there is a small machine shop, we'll see if we can repair fixing my tank. Two kids from a dozen years at most busy on slides suspension of a van Ford, one of two soda arc sunglasses while the other holds him by closing the blades eyes, they then slides back in under 10 minutes, and all for 40 dirham (4 €), to be born somewhere ... "the song says.



We borrow the drill and a drill to try to remove the sheared bolt that supports the tank, without much success. We try to sharpen the bit to the grinder, good accuracy, and we finally caught the break and then we had drilled about half the length of the bolt. Total failure, it goes off, and we pay the kids back on the road.


We take the road Askaoun, which amounts to a hill near 2000m along beautiful mountain villages.

Passage at the bakery in the middle of the crowd of onlookers, then attack the track,
Beautiful mountain trail with some rocky passages, points of view on the beautiful plateaus, one passes the neck to 2500m.















We stop on the way down to break the crust, the traditional round loaf sandwich, sardine and cow laughs. The sky darkens, the storm threat was to hardly time to finish the rain falls. More and more we go down the rain increases in intensity when we arrive on the tarmac is a downpour, you start to be used.


A Anezal we renounce the track and take the road to Ouarzazate. The cars are blocked before the wadis in spate, until the water drops, the fun for us. In a cyber cafe I find contact information for Home Bikers, a guesthouse run by a Dutchman and his Moroccan wife, I know he has a studio available to bikers.
A good day, the bike consumes oil me and my 10 immodium daily was wet feet and it curdles, apart from that all is well.
