Driving Holiday In Morocco Day Five: Tinghir (Tinerhir) To Ouarzazate Via Dadès Gorges, 12 November 1997

Why not? – Gorges yourself!

Headed off quite early – visited Dadès Gorges – went in as far as car will sensibly go – attractive.

Drove through relatively hassle free villages…

The reference to “relatively hassle-free villages” was actually a throw back to the previous day, when we had encountered several instances of “little treasures” finding it amusing to throw stones and pebbles at our car as we passed through their villages on the Erfoud to Tineghir run.

…then drove out to Ouarzazate – arrived at hotel, nice and early – relaxed around pool.

Rested in room and unexceptional dinner in overflow room at Riad Salam, with monotonous music and interesting Irish journalists.

I don’t think we were wild about that hotel, with the “interesting Irish journalists” being the only highlight. We didn’t photograph the place at all.
