The wedding celebrations ended at 6am and we were on the 7am train to Marrakech to meet up with my friends from Finland, Noora and Topi. The next day we met them and headed off to Essaouira, on the Atlantic ocean. As soon as we got of the bus we found a great little house for rent for 20 euros a night for the four of us. We ended up spending 5 nights in Essaouira, mainly hanging out on the beach, cooking tagines and yummy salads and wandering around the port and the Medina. One day we walked 35 kms along the beach to the next town to the south Sidi Kakoui, it was great cause the sand dunes almst touch the ocean! We left Essaouira for Safi early on the morning of my birthday adn I celebrated my birthday in Safi. We checked out the fortress and the medina. We also bought some beautiful Safi Pottery. The evening we went to the Hammam and out for a birthday dinner and cake at the hotel. The next day we went to El Jadida where we explored the Cite Portugais and then I slept alot cause I had a fever. We too a Grand Taxi to the next little beach town the next day and hung around there. That evening we tried to get to Settat, and although it proved to be extremley difficult even though it is only an hour and a half away it ended up taking like four hours....Moroccan buses. The next morning we took Noora and Topi to the train station and Alia nd i stayed on in Settat to paly with Rayan and visit with his family.
