| Tata to Foum Zguid - 85 miles |
Todays target is not
very far, about a couple of hours, so we joined the N12 heading for
Foum Zguid, a place we've stayed at several times before with a view
to staying a few days and get some washing done etc. The road is
again a two lane metalled surface but not particularly smooth so we
took it easy. Following the line of the Jbel Bani mountain ridge, it
was almost straight for many miles at a time, allowing us to use
cruise control for a change. Traffic was virtually non-existent, just
needed to keep an eye out for roving herds of camels, goats and
donkeys – well that's what the signpost said!
Foum Zguid is another
garrison town, quite modern but with an old centre. There has been
quite a lot of new building around the garrison and today it looked
like there were some important visitors judging by the number of
chauffeur driven cars parked outside. We easily found the Khaymer
Parc campsite and were welcomed by one of the three young lads who
run it. He told us just to go find ourselves a place, which was not
hard because it was almost empty. We chose the spot where we stayed
on our first visit, close to the amenities block and with full sun
all day. And a working electricity hookup point!
Got ourselves quickly
set up and had lunch then settled down to a hard afternoon, relaxing
in the sunshine.............
