Due to the tons of anti-american protests all over North Africa
(including Casablanca, Morocco which is where we were scheduled to
port) we are no longer going to Morocco. Our dean called a meeting the
night after Portugal and broke the news to us. It is really
unfortunate because Morocco would be such an extreme difference for
all of us (more than just a few different customs and a language
barrier like the places we have been so far). I think Morocco would
have been an amazing eye opened for everyone on the ship!! So instead
of Morocco we spent 2 extra days in Spain and then we are going to the
Canary Islands for 2 days and then heading off to Ghana and we will be
back on track with the regular itinerary! The Canary Islands will be
pretty cool, but just a little (ALOT) different than Morocco.
Hey cuz, while Morocco is absolutely amazing and I would recommend you going back there at some point, the Canary Islands are also fantastic! Any idea which island(s) you are going to? We did just Tenerife, visiting the beach town of Playa de las Americas, and the main city of Santa Cruz, and the entire place was phenomenal! Not to mention some of our major adventures happened there... Maybe leaves Morocco as somewhere to visit for next time? Jealous as usual, Chels.
