Bleh
I have nothing to say to the internet anymore. We occasionally spend big chunks of time in internet cafes moving pictures off our cameras (we have nice cameras that make huge files, and we take tons of photos), and I get SO BORED sitting here... This is the longest I've gone without regular internet access since I first had it, and it's amazing how little I miss it. Ugh, so bored right now.
We just left Fes this morning. Holy god, that city is incredible. The entire walled medina is like a snapshot of life 800 years ago. Most streets are too narrow for even a motorcycle to navigate safely, and transportation of goods and people mostly happens on foot or by donkey... I have never been anywhere like it. I think it is the most amazing place I have ever been.
Now we are in Meknes, the city next door, and it is kind of asstastic. We leave to go back to Spain the day after tomorrow, and I think I will be ready to go. Morocco is very cool, but I'm kind of sick of being perceived as a giant walking dollar sign.
Except we ran into this huge group of Americans in a cafe yesterday, and the whole time we were there listening to them talk, I was like, "Oh my god, I can't go home..." It was this little hole-in-the-wall cafe with mostly locals, and REALLY good food, and this one guy kept going, "Hey Marty! You know what would make this even better? Tabasco sauce!" They were SO loud, and totally unobservant of the people around them...it was embarrassing. This has been a really pleasant break from stewing over the things I hate about where my fellow countrymen are leading the so-called free world, so I think that in this way going home will be really weird and probably discouraging.
I am so over this internet cafe. We can has be done moving pictures now please?
