From Rabat to Moulay Bousselham
After spending two nights in the capital, Rabat, including an audience with Sam Kaplan, the US Ambassador to Morocco (Mr. Kaplan, like Addie, reigns from MN, so that served as a good icebreaker--more details to come!), the group has begun their student-led portion of the program by settling into the Atlantic village of Moulay Bousselham. Today's email from Katie Seckman sums up the vibe of what the students were seeking by choosing this destination: "We're staying at a very nice home located right on the beach. Pretty amazing, actually. We're huddled around the fireplace in the living room enjoying the view and listening to the waves." Not a bad prelude to Thanksgiving.
