This weekend we had Friday off from school so decided to head north to Chef Chaouen with another friend for the long weekend. The plan had been to rent a car, however, that proved to be more difficult (and more expensive) than expect...Plan B, the bus!
Background info: There has been a lot of rain all over Morocco for the last 3 weeks.
So on the way there we came across some flooding. And, no, not just minor flooding. Thigh-deep water flooding! And you guessed it (or maybe you didn't) we drove right through! It was incredible but all the while I'm thinking, "Oh no. My bag!" Everything came out at least a little wet...but not my Bible! Thank you Jesus!
Saturday was a Moroccan holiday celebrating the birth of the prophet Mohammed. Many things were closed, but not nature. We spend a few hours hiking up hills, rocks, across water falls...it was breathtaking! When we got back we went to the local hamman, a community bath, to relax. Dinner, tea, dessert, bed...Thank you Chef Chaouen for a wonderful relaxing weekend :)
