| The lagoon at Oualidia |
We are out of hiding (from the intense heat) and back in Marrakech. We went to Oualidia on the Atlantic coast, which I have blogged about before here and here. It`s one of my favourite places in Morocco. It has a beautiful lagoon, where the waters are warm and sheltered. It was very hot but at least we got a couple of cool breezy evenings.
We are back in Marrakech, which continues to swelter along with the rest of the country because of the hot and dry Saharan wind called the Chergui.
We swam and ate fresh fish and paella and now we are back.
While things are due to cool down at the weekend, our laptop is melting in the heat poor thing and so I don`t know how often I`ll be able to blog over the next few days. I have a new tablet but haven`t yet worked out how to get photos from my laptop on to it. So I hope you`ll bear with me while I am slow to catch up on blog reading and emails. This is the Moroccan equivalent of `snow on the lines`. My UK readers will know what I mean!
Back soon. I can`t wait to see what you`ve all been up to!
It looks gorgeous!! Sorry to hear your laptop is melting - I hope you don't follow its example!!
ReplyDeleteI am so very jealous! Nightmare with the melting laptop.
ReplyDeletePoor you. I know you would love to be here in the cold and the rain. Soon though!!
ReplyDeleteFantastic photos. I did think of you when it was pouring rain and chilly here, but I hope your weekend was as lovely as the setting.
ReplyDeleteWhat fantastic scenery surrounds you! stay cool- no melting now!
ReplyDeleteWow. Now that's hot! Good luck keeping cool and hope the laptop survives as well. :o)
ReplyDeleteSecretly that sounds like heaven!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you found a bit of relief from the heat. I hope you get your internet/tablet straightened out. It's going to be 100' here all week too!
ReplyDeleteOoh dont envy you despite the fabulous photys... I tend to wilt above 27 degrees...
ReplyDeleteSimply gorgeous! I always find myself wishing I could place myself somewhere in your photos!
ReplyDeleteThat lagoon looks wonderful what a great place to visit.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry it is soooo hot - I know I moan about our cold wet weather but I can imagine that intense heat is way too much as well.
That lagoon looks dreamy! Glad you got a little break and hope your week cools off a bit!
ReplyDeleteLooks gorgeous - hailstones here yesterday!
ReplyDeleteYour adoptive country is stunning, you make me wish that I could come and visit!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous picture!! Yes ice fell from the sky here too today!
ReplyDeleteI'll trade you some rain, the cold and my winter coat, that I am still wearing in May for a day in Morocco!!!
ReplyDeleteI think all of us over here in the uk will be very jealous of the heat!
ReplyDeleteOh, just a little warmth please :) Pics remind me of Oman. Hope the heat breaks soon for you :)
ReplyDeleteThat looks so idyllic *sigh* Pack your woollies for coming over here though, we have a forecast low of -1 on Thursday - WTH?!
ReplyDeleteWhy haven't they invented teleportation yet! The Lagoon looks like a great place to be right now!
ReplyDeleteMake sure you pack an umbrella! =D
Beautiful scenery! Welcome back.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful beach! It reminds me of my time in Southwest India. Stay cool and drink lots of fluids. ;)
ReplyDeleteI remember when you took me there... Maybe one day for real. I hope you unmelted soon.
ReplyDeleteOoh, looks like you're having a good time. Wishing you some cool breezes!
ReplyDeleteAlthough I'm a tincy bit jealous (actually a LOT) I'm sorry to hear about your sick laptop....Hope it feels better soon
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, if we could mix our two climates together we'd probably have the perfect comfort zone!
