The Morocco Trip Story

So here is the story from when I went to Morocco on my recnet vacation to Spain.

It was quite a journey. Had to drive from Marbella to Algeciras, about a 40 minute drive. In Algecira at the Port I caught a Tour bus that takes you to Tarifa, the tip of Spain, that another 30 minute bus ride. In Tarifa I caught a 40 minute Ferry Across into Tanegr which is the tip of Morocco. The Ferry was nice but there were alot of sketchy Moroccan/Arab men who try to talk to you and just look at you. Mind you Im dress very casual, Vneck Tee, Cargo shorts, sneakers, a backpack and some Raybans. I mus admit I was nervous because your getting off at a Port not some fancy Airport woth luxuries. Upon arriving as soon as I get off the Ferry, three guys who tried to talk to me on the Ferry kept following me and telling me to take a tour with them, that they where tour guides and had txis to take me where ever. I think I was the only person on the Ferry not on a guided tour group so they smelled the vulnerability. Your getting off to some Aladdin type shit so its ab it overwhelming. I dont think I have ever been so nervous in my life so I literally after all that travel and expense, went back thru immigration to get back onto the Ferry and go back to Spain.

Upon goign thru Immigration, I had some burn marks on my wrist from cooking when some oil jumped on it from the day before and it looked like red marks. The immigration agents asked my why I was going back to Spain so fast. Literally 5 minutes after I had arrived. It looked suspicious and then they asked me about my wrist and If I did drugs.

Im like great, they are gonna lock me up and I wil never be heard from again. After about 20 miutes of questions they let me go and got back on the Ferry back to Spain. To top it off, on return we went against the current so I Got a bit of sea sick, thank God I didnt barf...

Im Totally an adventurer but sometimes you have to follow your instincts, and Ive seen and read way to many thigns about people disappearing or held for ransom so Im glad I did what I had to do. The sucky part is that I didnt get to take amazing pictures. I only have a picture taken from the Ferry of the distant short or Morocco and my Pass Port Stamps into and out of the country.

My next trip will be to IRELAND In October, Im sure that one will be fine.
