The Sahara

We toured the Atlas Mountains and the Sahara Desert these past few days. Among the highlights of our car ride:

* Our tour guide Mohammad, who spoke "Mohammad" (a mix of French, Arabic, Spanish, and English, and understandable to no one)
* Exchanging email addresses with the Berber man I met in the desert
* Alicia giving three local girls one American dollar to share, which we're pretty sure was the end of their friendship
* Discovering how animal sounds are interpreted in French, Polish, and Dutch

And of the Sahara:

* Our camel ride
* Watching the sun set over the dunes
* Eating tagine with our hands
* Sleeping under the stars

All in all an incredible experience.
