camera no more

A sad day. My camera died. No more photos from our trip I'm afraid.

It is far too hot in this internet cafe so I will keep this brief. We went to Tafraoute: painted rocks, walking in the Almeln Valley, good. Now we are in Sidi Ifni, quite simply "the most romantic art deco military town ever built", I'm wondering who the other contenders are? Tomorrow we start heading for Mauritania and there is likely to be blog black out for a while.

Now in a much cooler internet cafe, a good thing as it is bloody hot outside. People here are also commenting on how hot it is, this makes me feel happy that I am not just being a wuss about the heat but I fear that where we are heading temperatures are pretty constantly hotter than this and there will cease to be comments from the locals along the lines of "c'est tres chaud aujord hui".

We are about to get on a 15.5 hour bus in this heat. Bum.

We left Sidi Ifni this morning, it was a lovely town and deservedly described as romantic. Very sleepy compared to other towns we have been too. The beach was only so so but the waves were exceptionally strong, much being knocked over and whacked with fist-sized rocks carried by the swash (note, geography teacher).

Much love,
