| Assilah to Moulay Bousselham - 58 miles |
Yet another beautiful,
if cool, morning after a peaceful night – we both slept better than
we have done over the last week or so. We're in no rush today so
after breakfast etc. we spent some time on the beach with Jamie
whilst some of the others walked into the town for a look-see. The
group is splitting up here, the two younger couples staying a further
night before heading south to do their own thing, whilst us other
four “oldies” are moving on.
So around mid-day we
departed Assilah to head for a nice quiet campsite about an hour and
a half away on the coast at Moulay Bousselhem where we've stayed
before. Just to give the newbies some experience of the real Morocco
we avoided the motorway and took the ordinary roads, which generally
were fine although we did encounter the odd rough spot and pothole as
well as a flooded road under a bridge – some van washing needed
over the next couple of days! We also passed through a couple of
villages and the larger town of Laroche before driving on fairly
minor roads through quite intensive agricultural activity before
reaching our destination.
Arriving at the
campsite the guardian tried to put us together on quite a nice spot
but it lacked sunshine, which is what we wanted so we told him we'd
find our own and book in with him shortly. Having been here before we
knew there were some good places and as it was not busy we had a good
choice. The only problem was that the electricity, which has always
been hit and miss here, was definitely miss and only one of us
managed to get a working hookup, after some moving around. We've got
solar panels so as long as we can get the sun we're okay – the
elctric may come back on, who knows?
So set up, a late lunch
then do what we came for – relax in the sun...........
