To Africa

Africa from Gibraltar
Confusingly, Morocco is 2 hours behind Gibraltar at the moment, meaning I arrived in Tangiers about 5 minutes before I departed Spain. Had a delicious Tagine for dinner, but that, together with the romanticism of the call of the muezzin with the golden sun bathing the old port could convince me of staying in Tangier any longer.
Possibly the quickest turn around of the whole expedition took place with hotel to bus station to Rabat oven (for this read bus) lasting no more than 15 minutes.
Currently avoiding unknown protests (banners in Arabic) while hoping my visa for Mauritania will come through okay this afternoon.
