Day 40 - Malaga, Spain

Another early start to catch a taxi to Marrakech Airport. From here we flew to Casablanca with initially one and a quarter hour layover. We ended up waiting, waiting and waiting and as I write this we are still waiting seven hours later. There is some technical difficulty with the plane and at this stage we are uncertain when we will leave. To appease the passengers, Air Maroc offered us a meal voucher. The meal was substandard. It appear three of their aircraft are grounded - a bit of a worry.

At 6pm we had boarded the plane - 6 hours late. By the time we were out of customs, it was 9.30. We caught a taxi to pick up the keys from the letting office then to our apartment. Finding the apartment was difficult but we turned the key at 11.30 so nearly an 18 hour day.

I haven't seen much of Malaga given it was dark but it is in complete contrast to Morocco. It is modern, clean and civilized. A bit of a pity really as we thoroughly enjoyed the grittiness of the last few weeks. 

Tomorrow we'll explore.

Our flight that was delayed.


Snake charmers


And monkies - quite sad


They even have a McDonalds in Marrakech
