Riding the Waves in Essaouira
Yesterday we arrived in Essaouira with a short stop en route to visit the first and largest women's argan oil cooperative in Morocco. Yesterday, I oriented the students to the medium-sized fishing village of Essaouira. It has been quite windy here, but it is the windsurfing capital of Morocco!
This morning we headed out for a couple of hours of surfing - it was great fun! I think Zoe has found her calling! This evening we will partake in a little Gnawa music jam session. We will spend the rest of our time exploring the city, observing the fishermen at work, and perhaps a little beach walking if it warms up a bit.
On Sunday we will head to Marrakesh.
