Spring approaches, hibernation has to take an end.
After endless weeks of incredible winter weather, temperatures below 0, snow storms, ice covered landscapes and a huge bill for heating our flat, spring approaches. And finally our 1st sign after hibernation.
We travelled thru many different countries. On the way we lived all kind of experiences and adventures. We met a lot of different people and experienced many situations. Considering our background, many experiences were within our comprehension, others not easy to understand or to explain. We even lived some logics out of our understanding. Of…
Yeah – we did it.
On 6th December we have arrived in Laufenburg. And happily we’re back on our main road from Maseru 2 Punta Arenas.
Finally our trip Ouagadougou 2 Laufenburg took us 4 months’n’6 days.
We made 21.800 km, without any accident or mechanical problems and our tyre maintenance was limited 2 the repair of 2 punctures.
We visited 14 countries, the shortest visit was 4 hours – Gibraltar, the longest 6,5 weeks – Morocco.
By now we’re a little over a month in Morocco, but still on our way home. Maybe it’s not the most direct road 2 Laufenburg, but somehow and somewhen we’ll reach it. Our last post ended on Tizi-n- Aït- Hamed this spectacular mountain pass going up 2 3000m altitude. …
After a long time we’re back.
For some 5 weeks we could simply not access our website. After asking our dear provider we learnt that he does not provide this service in this country. Whatever that may mean. We put some energy in friendly correspondence with them without a too concrete answer.
But finally we got a kind of a perspective to have it activated again once out of Morocco – and, as you can see, it worked.
what the hell is a Tagine? Morocco
In the evening we went to our favourite restaurant to have one of the most famous Moroccan dishes: Tagine.
Later in the afternoon it started raining heavily. We met 3 Germans, father and 2 sons, who planned to have their night out in a tent in the dunes.
After having crossed all kind of Mauritanian’n’Moroccan flats the last week we needed some more hilly areas. So we decided 2 visit the Anti-Atlas with its numerous mountain chains, valleys and its hidden villages high up on the hills. Well, 1st we had 2 say goodbye 2 Agadir…
There is another hair-rising pass we had to conquer the Tizi n’ Tazazert with 2283 m. Very few of this odd tourist species go there.
The road was winding its way through traditional villages, where the inhabitants did even not dare to feed their goats with used plastic bags, desert landscape and fantastic geological phenomena.
