Our adventure in Morocco: the story (travel anecdotes, tips, addresses and more stories)

From here you have access to the whole of our Moroccan adventure, through series of episodes, so here's a foreword before you start: as all the pages have been carefully designed to make this an original and I hope enjoyable experience - including music and slide shows at opportune moments to get an idea of how we felt and what we saw - if you wish to skip some pages, it's best to start a series from an episode marked '*' as this means you'll get the full experience... and this way you're sure not to miss out on anything... PS: Once the miniatures are loaded, by placing the mouse cursor over them you have a summary, and with a click, you get to the given page. Wishing you a nice 'trip' ;-) K
