Now that my story of the infamous break in has been told, I want to share with you some of the best moments of my time here thus far in Morocco. About two weeks ago, I went on an epic four day adventure to the South of Morocco. I went with three friends: Jon, Ari & Connor who we surprised and met up with in Agadir. I am going to post some of my favourite pictures and describe our journey.
The half hour break we had in Guelmim. The cafe was nice and the server was super helpful in helping us find an oasis to explore!
We journey about an hour south east of Guelmim and followed signs that pointed us to this Sahraoui guest house in an oasis. We were offered tea, advice on what to see, which was followed by an impromptu drumming session. This entire visit was such a welcome surprise!
This might be my favorite picture of the trip! This is the sunset at Legzira, which is only accessible at low tide. We found the one sign for Legzira, turned, parked, walked down a hill and then followed the beach for about a mile until we saw the rock formations. This was taken on the way back...
This trip was wonderful and has made me excited to continue to explore this lovely country.
This is me surprising Connor in Agadir. He had no idea we were coming!
The guys are broing out in Agadir!
Ari, our resilient driver. During our trip, we were pulled over for speeding. Ari's quick thinking and savvy answers saved the day!
Here is the sign for Tiznit...which is actually the highlight of the city. When we got there, everything was closed for siesta time, so we kept driving...
We arrived at Aglou Plage, had lunch, walked on the boardwalk and took some pictures before continuing on our way to Mirleft.
Ari found a wonderful spot to stop and watch the sunset. Here are some of the highlights of the beauteous event. One of the most memorable sunsets in my life thus far!

After discovering the oasis, we drove back up to the coast to Legzira.
