Ma'salama Morocco

It happened so quickly. Half an hour, and we were back in Europe. Left behind were the headscarves, the call to prayer, and a million other things Moroccan. After two months in Morocco, we were pretty excited to get back to Spain. The ferry over was quick, pleasant, and very European.

Got through customs, made our way to the bus station, and had lunch at a lovely little cafĂ©. It was the kind of place you just don’t find in Morocco – staffed by one young woman, a menu full of varied mixtures of meats and vegetables, and wireless internet! It was as if the whole country of Spain were saying “Welcome back!” through this one establishment. We were happy, and it was probably the most enjoyable two-hour wait for a bus we’ve ever had.
