Part III Agadir Trip

This is Miss Judy trying out her FIFTH cup of coffee......sometimes it's hard to get a really "good" cup of coffee in Morocco! :) But....Judy just kept trying....maybe a little cinnamon in it, maybe a little more sugar or milk, maybe milk first and then the coffee.....nope....it's just not Starbucks!! :)

So many parts of Morocco I would love to share with my mom and dad. Mom would love all the beautiful flowers and Dad would love all the farm land and animals!

Now we are entering the town/village of Safi. They are known for their beautiful pottery. I hope to go back and see that more. Instead we were on a mission to see the "World's Largest Tagine". One of my students had just given his report on it and I wanted the girls to see it!

We drove all around town and asked three different people....they all sounded so thrilled that we would be looking for the "Grand Tagine". Well.....here it is! The girls expected something a lot larger.....they were a little let down. I went to pose and tried to get them a little more excited about it! :)

They finally agreed to pose with me and the World's Largest Tagine!!! (My students LOVED the photos!)

Safi had lots of beautiful murals around town. This was a mosaic made out of ceramic tiles.

This was a building on the edge of town.

Another interesting looking building on the edge of town.

We stopped to look back at the view of the town and this little girl came up to sell us candies. We all bought something from her. She was just adorable!

She knew just enough English to make a good sale and then say "Thank you very much!" in the sweetest voice!

The next little town we drove through...

This is a hotel about 3 miles south of our school. I have never been inside, but it looks impressive from the outside!

The car was moving, so this isn't a great photo, but this is one of the many stands along the highway on the way to our school on the weekend. He is selling fresh squeezed orange juice. The only problem is the glasses are used and reused.... I've never actually bought o.j. from them.

Lynn drove this whole trip and gave me a lovely break! It was so fun to sit and relax and take photos. This is some of the crazy driving.....can you see the four or five vehicles trying to fit into two lanes of traffic??!!

More vendors on the side of the road....selling oranges at this stop.

This is the road up to our school. There is the local cow...where is the shepherd that is watching him??? !!Well, that was our trip to Agadir....back to work on Monday!   :)
