Moroccan Adventures

So after two interviews fell through for the day, Becca and I hit the streets of Rabat to take as many "B-roll" photos for our "documentary" as we could! We stopped and had a lot of fun, the fun included:

•  A race to breakfast before it closed
• Playing Shakira's "Waka Waka, This Time for Africa" (as we do every morning)
• A walk to the beach
• Taking photos of a dead cow's body washed up on shore
• A walk through a cemetary
• An attempted walk through Oudaya... limited by an overly friendly man (we were looking to get lost on our own and fake tour guides of the neighborhood really limit that opportunity)
• Pictures of an adorable cat asleep in a planter
• "Breaking" into two cemetery doors
• Going into the main entrance to the cemetery and having one of the most confusing conversations with an elderly man you most definitely did not speak either languages that Becca and I speak...
• Becca being asked on a date in the middle of the street
• Giving two hard boiled eggs and croissants to a little girl and her mom
• Walking to find the gosh darn Panini place we've heard so much about
• THE BEST MANGO JUICE TO EVER EXIST
• Eating Paninis... we thinkkkkk Becca's was chicken... no promises
• We both officially decided it might actually be more fun not speaking French or Arabic here...
• Photos
• Revisit to Hassan Tower and the Mosque next to it for some photos for our project.
• Getting extremely ripped off for Henna, but we've come to terms with the loss of our money (that would take me about a four and a half hour shift at Bird Arena to work off)... or have we?
• Trying to figure out the Tram system
• Walking home
• Sitting outside our hotel to peel off the rest of our Henna peelings
• Being approached by teenage Moroccans... speaking German... Yeah we were confused too...
• Watching a protest in front of The Parliament building
• Becca pinning me down and putting eye drops in my eyes, putting allergy pills down my throat, and "helping me out" with some minor (pretty major) blister issues on the bottom of my feet!
• Currently getting ready for dinner near the beach!

Have I mentioned I love Morocco?...

Hopefully tomorrow is a touch more productive than today, ... before we start to fall too far behind...
