Why this day was so forgettable:
○ I went a second night with fewer than three hours of sleep
○ Alicia's $160 hair straightener melted
○ I woke up feeling ill, then visited the tanneries, which are notoriously bad-smelling. As you may have guessed, I ended up getting sick and thus had the opportunity to visit an authentic Turkish-styled toilet (hyperlink). Exciting to say the least.
○ I gouged my toe running up a flight of stairs, which I would show you, but it's too gross. Thank God for Neosporin.
Not all went wrong, however. We met new Couchsurfing friend Jonathan and Belgian friend Bjorn, and had dinner at an upscale restaurant downtown (which still didn't blow the budget, even with wine!). It was nice to get out of the medina for the night, too - it was fun the first couple days, but being constantly hassled to buy things gets tiring pretty quickly.
We're heading to the Atlas Mountains tomorrow - hoping for an incident-free trip!
