Biker Ismail guided me out of town on his so-so aluminum road bike. It was early morning 9:30am and we had a chat as far as the traffic allowed for that. He was at a friend in Casablanca centre over the weekend and now returning back home getting ready for some work. Priorities do matter!
It took 15km to get the last buildings and developments behind us before country roads presented the scenery in somewhat hazy conditions. While it cleared up at later stage, the road took us through some forest and agriculture areas, all quite green to my surprise.
Upon arrival in Azemmour I strolled through the medina offering everything someone could think off including absolutely fresh & cackling chicken. The pigs were already dead and cut in big chunks.
I have booked my accommodation for one night only in a very nice Riad, which is situated within the historical part of the town. Plan is to keep going tomorrow morning as my goal is to get rather sooner than later back onto the road further down south.
Fair winds…
