Incredible Journey to The Sahara Desert ~Marrakesh and Sahara~ <Morocco vol.3>

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

When we arrived at Marrakesh,
It had passed already 10days since my first step to Morocco.

I was a bit tired because of too much stimulation everyday,
but the balcony on the top of the hotel made me relaxed.

At night, we went to "Djemaa el Fna square", the famous big market of Marrakesh,
and had really tasty beaf skewers!!

Even though it gave me a very bad stomach after, I still don't regret it! haha
Cuz it was really tender and succulent!


The following day, we took a loooooong drive to The Sahara desert.

I was lucky! Because on the way, the bus stopped by some villages of Berber people.
and they were very impressive!!

The guide told us that the American popular drama "Game of Thrones" had shot around there.

Berber man was talking about the quality of HANDMAID berber carpet!

The people there lived in a very different way from how I live in Tokyo.

Everything in this country took my breath away!
Look at me thinking with a faraway look in my eyes haha

I also liked this "Grand Canyon" like beautiful scenery.
I don't remember the name, but they appeared suddenly on our way.

After the loooong drive, we found the camels were waiting for us!

Riding on a camel is harder than you would expect!
It walks like up and down, up and down (because of their long legs?)
So you really need to stick to their hump, not to fall down!!

When you FINALLY get to this sand heaven, you will forget the fatigues of the road.

I couldn't take a picture, but in the camp, there was a cat.
The cat was able to run up the big sand hill very easily and quickly,
as if he was born to live in a desert.
That was surprising!!

This cute insect was called "Neatus picipes"
I wouldn't think it's cute if I find it in Tokyo,
but the small footprint on the desert made me feel like..

"This small one is trying so hard in this huge desert!!"

Actually, I was not able to see "sky full of stars", which I had expected there, because it was cloudy at night.

However it is a good reason to come back here again.
Bye for now, Sahara Desert!
