Morrocco trek 2014

Morrocco trip 2014
After our successful trek to Everest BC we take on the High Atlas mountains in Morrocco
It was quite a noisy night with frogs, bugs etc. About 3 am was awakened by stones being moved and water irragation getting started with a rush of water. Up at 6 breakfast and away by 7.15 before sun gets too hot.
We have past through many Berber villages. The woman busy washing clothing in streams and bringing in hay on backs.
Children start school age 7, school day is 8 to 5 with hour for lunch.
We stop for lunch and break in the shade just after 10. Mint tea is so refreshing. Well after a filling lunch of pasta sardines and salad we settle for a while (5 hrs in fact to avoid strong sun.
We then had an hour walk to our camp for the night. Scenery has changed from terraces with crops to stoney and juniper trees.
Tomorrow morning we set off early as doing a high peak.https://www.facebook.com/CoopersMountainAdventures
