Rabat, Morocco. Nov 2014

We now have a grand total of 8 passengers after picking up Dave in Fes.  From Fes we headed towards Rabat.  We would be bush camping every night in Rabat due to the lack of funds which means that we have to find a place to camp just before dark and then pack up the next morning.  Rabat is the capital of Morocco so its the place to get visas.  We rocked up at the Mauritanian embassy just before 9 in hope of submitting our application and getting the visa as quick as possible so we could then submit for Mali.  Steve wore a tie for the occasion and we successfully got the two visas by the end of the day.  Whilst waiting we had a wander around the city walking through the market and a huge cemetery to the beach.  Morocco so far has been great for coffee and cakes so I'm making sure I'm fitting lots of them in.

The last visa we need to get is the Cote d'Ivoire which we can't submit when we wanted to due to a public holiday.  Tyson and Dave headed on the train to Casablanca and the girls went for a shower in town and then on to find a beach to spend the day on.  It wasn't the cleanest of beaches but the views were good.
