5.30 am Awoken by the calling to prayer in the distance. Very sad thinking that it could be the last time for us.
Up before 6 am and on the road at 6.40 am. It's going to be a long day.
A good half hour wasted looking for the coast road to Safi and it was light as we drove the 5k back to the roundabout and the Safi Road.
Beautiful scenery. So pleased that Ray had recommended it. Another gem.
He also recommended a stop at Moulay Bousselham but we have run out of time.
The going was clear for a while with a few clouds over the sea but as we drove further north the weather worsened until 50 k before Safi we could only see a few yards in front of us.
Around 30 k before El Jadida we stopped for a late breakfast.
