Saturday morning and off to Africa -- Morocco here we come!

We leave this morning for Tangier on the ferry!  When we arrive we stay in Tangier for two days and take an overnight train to Marakech! Spain has been wonderful and now I can't wait to experience Morocco.

It may be a while before I post again due to lack of Internet service.

Tarifa has been quaint, adorable, beautiful, spirited and lovely.  And our last day in Cordoba earlier in the week was a wonderful send off by the Rector. We also had the honor and pleasure of meeting a group of young men from Africa whose bravery and determination carried them through their travels as immigrants to Spain.  They shared their stories of strength with us and we were all in awe of their strong character and will.  We ended our visit with tea and a lovely dessert.  A saint of a social service organization name Kala in Cordoba supports these young men and encourages them to build skills to prosper for life.  And above all...Kala puts heavy emphasis on the constant theme of building affection for all of these fantastic young men.

When I return I would like to collect items to support Kala in their efforts...please feel free to let me know if you would like to contribute and learn more of this fabulous organization and brave individuals.

Til next post....
