Morning Greetings

Bonjour!

It's another beautiful day in Rabat, Morocco, as Bob likes to say.

Actually it's a bit overcast, but still springtime-warm: Anna and Tommy went off to school today in shorts (Anna's were more like cropped pants).

We had a great time earlier this week with the Amy, Terry, Camille and Charlie when they came to stay with us in Rabat. They left for Fes yesterday, and we join them tomorrow for a couple of nights in a riad before we start our adventure to the Saharan desert. (Yes, Bob is going to get to ride his camel. Since I'm sure few of you will want to miss seeing this important event, we'll definitely post some pictures. BTW, my prediction is that riding camels will be fun for about 10-15 minutes, after which it will quickly become much less fun).

I'm hoping to have a special blog from a guest writer later today. We'll see what I can do! In the meantime, here are a few more photos for you.... The photos include a couple of pictures of the holy city of Moulay Idriss (one of the two photos shows the mausoleum of Moulay Idriss, with the green roof, an important site for Muslims), an example of the incredibly intact stone mosaics we saw in Volubilis, a couple of pictures of Anna and Tommy in Volubilis, and a picture of Camille from Sunday with one of our "pet" cats, Fluffy.

A bientot!
