We were due to be in Marrakech this week, but circumstances dictate that we go to Middlesbrough instead.
Malesh (never mind).
I've been practising my arabic. 'Ya habibi!' (You are lovely). 'Wahid kobbaya fi moya min fadlik' (a glass of water please) and my favourite 'Inti humara' (you are a donkey). Although I wouldn't dream of using that last one. Unless of course I found myself confronted by a confused donkey. In which case I would tell him he was lovely and possibly even ask for a glass of water on his behalf.
This is what I was looking forward to. Adventure, warmth and colour. The souks, the food, the Atlas mountains, Yves Saint Laurent's house....oh the list goes on. Being a Sagittarius fire horse, I love to travel and to see how other people live. Hopefully we will get to go another time. Inshallah. I keep using that one.
I also like it when people tell me about their travel adventures. If I don't know where they are going I get the atlas out and look it up. Secret pleasure. The checkout man in the supermarket has just been to Pakistan for three weeks and my friend A is off to Berlin for four days. How about you? Off anywhere nice?

Oh no so sorry to hear you couldn't get away : ( How can you still look at those gorgeous pictures? x
It did give me a bit of a pang when I was looking at them, I must admit. But it can't be helped and there will be other opportunities. xx
The pictures are divine! Next time...xx
I share your travel bug and can only imagine how frustrating curtailing your plans must be!
I've applied to renew our Indian tourist visas and spent much of Saturday afternoon looking for flights, still nothing to report but hopefully it won't be long! x
Livvy, yes the pictures do look lovely. Next time! :) xx
Vix, so exciting going to India. I've never been but it's definitely on the list! x
