Way home

This was the worst moment in our journey - we wanted go further but having our time limited we had to turn back. We had only about a week’s time to get back, and that would be a week spent almost entirely in the car. We drove the same way from Western Sahara to Agadir, but from Agadir we were coming back shorter way which is situated on the coast. Few kilometres from Agadir we saw something amazing –‘flying goats’ – a breeding of young goats, which were jumping from one tree to another trying to eat fresh leaves. We asked the goat owner if we could take some photos and we gave an old man one bottle of tropical juice in exchange – they are a livelihood for him so even a photo should somehow be paid for.


Our way from Agadir to Safi was quite interesting as it was small road with many nice views. After Safi we were crossing the biggest cities of Morocco such as Casablanca and Rabat which were mostly industrial. We were driving to Tanger that time as we wanted to check which border cross is better for next time. In our opinion Tanger is much better as there are less queues, people are nicer and everything is quicker. Even a ferry was much cheaper and way through Gibraltar Strait was shorter. Actually the connection Tanger – Tarifa (harbour town in Spain) is more comfortable.

Before we reached to Tanger we broke our GPS – You can imagine how much we were angry – Because of this incident we were lost many time in crowded Tanger;(. Finally we managed and we found proper way.

When we arrived to Spain we decided to “jump” for a moment to Gibraltar.


The weather was awful as it was raining, but the whole city seemed to be nice. Unfortunately we were stuck on the border because of long queue created by many cars from different countries. Gibraltar was our last stop. From that place we were driving straight to home. That was a really great adventure. We only wished to have more time to see more, but we still happy that we were able to see what we seen.
