Visit Impressive Volubilus and Eat Couscous in Fes

We left the grandeur of Rabat in the morning just as the King was arriving. Street crews spent the night trimming, sweeping, and spit-shining every inch of the capital city in preparations as we headed east to visit the 2nd and 3rd century Roman ruins of Volubilis, proceeding then to Meknes and ending the day at the Riad Salam in Fes. Tired and then astonished by this grand gem, hidden behind the humble exterior, and welcomed with customary Moroccan hospitality, we ate like sultans and slept like babies.

Tomorrow we’re up at 6 and out to the Medina of Fes for the day. Full of couscous and hospitality, I’ll sign off until my adventures tomorrow. Salam.
