03/15 : The Road to Marrakech
En route to Marrakech, a gruelling all day affair of 9 hours! By this time we knew the train wouldn't be on time, and it was two hours and half late. Even though LP (our travel bible) didn't think it was worth it, we took the first class and were glad for it. We had the 6-seater compartment to ourselves for most of the 8-hour journey until John Haynes of Abidjan, Liberia joined us. He sings at a club in Marrakech, just signed a contract in a 5 star hotel in Casablanca and is quite a jovial character! He’s got Michael Jackson and James Brown in his bones!
Famished by the time we arrived in Marrakech, we picked up some McDo and ate at our Dar. Morocco's beauty is on the inside, literally. The outside is a chaotic, labyrinthian maze.
