On the Road in the rain

Well today we went on a road trip to see some Roman ruins, however we were minus some people! Jane and Josephine were not feeling too well so they were in the hotel. Now on to the rest of the story!
We went to this ancient Roman site that once held 12,000 people it was fantastic till it started to rain, and when it rains here it comes down in buckets! Emily and my pants were soaked. However we did see some great mosaics such as this one before it rained. The site was discovered by the French and was partially rebuilt. The only people that visit this site are people from outside Morocco! And guess what it is a UNESCO site.
We then saw the first Muslim city ever in Morocco, however there are no pictures of it because it was raining!
Oh by the way we have a great driver for this trip and he is very helpful his name is Mohamed Hansani.
As we carried on to the next town as it was raining we went to Meknis, we saw some gates a shrine and a market. After that we went back to the hotel! It might not sound like a lot but we drove for a while to get to these places, while we were driving we saw the wonderful land scape's! I will post some pics later.

Ciao for now from Morocco Mike
