Taroudant to Wassay Beach - 89 miles
A cloudy start which later turned to hazy sunshine, woken by the traffic around the town and the pedestrians walking by. Our target today is Agadir to do some serious shopping, we're almost out of everything so after breakfast, with no servicing available, we were off at 10.35 having decided to give a walk round the town a miss. We did see a lot of the town walls and they are very impressive, our Rough Guide telling us they're 5 km all round and can be walked the entire length.

TomTom tried to take us onto what we believed to be a back road so we ignored it and stuck to the N10, although Agadir was also signposted the other way. We subsequently discovered that it was a new “express” road which apparently avoided all the towns and villages slowing us down on the N10 and could probably have saved us some time. Not to worry, we still enjoyed the sights, there's no desperate rush and the road was quite good all the way into Agadir. We headed to the Marjane hypermarket where we joined numerous other motorhomes all apparently doing the same as us.


£125 later we managed to stow a very full trolley load of purchases all over Bertie – hope we can remember where it all went – and had lunch before setting off south to Sidi-Ouassai, better known as Wassay Beach where there is a good sized campsite overlooking the beach with all facilities. We've tentatively decided on 3 or 4 nights here but we'll have to look at the weather forecast – the one we've seen says it's going to be fine but this evening it's blowing a hooly and is looking decidedly hazy out to sea! But at least it's very warm.
