The Reward After A Long Journey

Rachel and I have found that many of the greatest places in the world we've visited, have been the result of the most challenging journeys. Our most recent voyage to the Ameln Valley and the Anti-Atlas Mountains is a prime example.

Sunrise from the backseat of a bus in the Anti-Atlas Mountains, Southern Morocco.

After two interesting bus rides (where we witnessed fighting, vomiting and moaning), a couple "petit" taxis (imported Renaults which grossly overcharge foreigners), a "grand" taxi (usually a white, mid-1980s diesel Mercedes stuffed with seven passengers) and a dodgy bus station hotel where we rested our heads for a few hours, we made it to the Anti-Atlas.

Stay tuned to read about our exciting hiking and biking adventures through the Anti-Atlas Mountains and the Berber villages of the Ameln Valley.

One final shot of an amazing wake-up call.

SALAAM!!!
