CAMEL STUCK IN QUICKSAND CAMEL FULL

But we found a couple of good stores and raided them for stuff we suspected would be in short supply in Morocco. The wind was getting worse, and it was raining. Do-able both on foot and by truck, but as a hassle either way, it wasn’t our first choice. We did have the option of crossing into Gibraltar, which belongs to the British and was reputed to have some interesting things on offer (at some not so interesting prices), but it would be a last resort. We scrambled to find a good place to do some last minute shopping. We were heading for the ferry out of Algeciras, tucked up tight against Gib (as the locals say).

Do I have you oriented now? Tarifa, by the way, has an extremely high suicide rate they say it’s because of the constant winds – we can vouch for that! They also say that, on a clear day, from Tarifa you can see across to northern Africa. We were a bit up the west side of the Spanish peninsula the road drops south to Tarifa (the southernmost point in Europe, believe it or not) before rounding the point and going a little up the eastern shore to Gilbraltar. It was very windy (which should have been a clue as to what was ahead), but the canopy of trees kept the worst out, and we spent a peaceful night.

On the road to Morocco, we spent our last night in Spain, or so we thought at the time, in a natural reserve near a wetlands. As a pass, it’s not that special but as far as names go, we dare you to go us one better! The Pass of the She-Camel is, in Arabic, Tizi n’Talrhmeht.
