Back in europe

The last week went by so quickly ,haven't had time or internet access to update this blog properly. After updating the last blog, we drove over the atlas mountains heading in a south eastly direction. The scenery really changed quickly from spainsh like to very dry and barren. The desert isn't always just sand, it is very rocky too. We wild camped in the dunes for 4 days. I think the sahara is the most peacefull place on earth, the quiteness is deafening. No sound at all, no roads no tree's rustling no buildings just an infinate horizon. From there we headed across to tan tan where we wild camped on the beach..from there we drove to marrakech and from marrakech to here in santander. Had the best surf this morning also ! Perfect waves and no wind.So that's it, Ferry home tmw..

Blue marks the spot

It's getting wilder

Drove over the atlas mountains today heading south east. Tonight we're in Midelt.

Driving driving driving

About twenty minutes form zafra where were staying tonight.We Left santander around 11 this morning so that's around 8 hours so far or 460 miles.Tomorrow another early start so as to be in algeciras for 11 where we leave Europe and enter Africa, mate.

On the way to Spain

Dead calm, as flat as a pan cake, like a mill pond...

All packed and ready to go

Everythings now on the car so we're ready to go. Ferry leaves Plymouth tmw afternoon, morocco here we come. Going to have a Reema for the road tonight I think...

More preperation

I've been separating into boxes all the gear for the trip today. Picked up three of my favourite boards that should suit most conditions..Their like old acquaintances, I intend to go for a few paddles before I leave. For those that don't know, morocco has some of the most challenging waves in the world, right hand point breaks mainly.Google Anka point and you'll see.

1950's sweets

Asked what I wanted from the shop I said some sweets, something 21st century, not murray mints...


Mildy disappointed

Also my iphone turned up after leaving it in a cab in London. Someone nicely rang my brother this morning from the contacts list. Bit of good will there,humanity ain't all bad !
