Day 25-26 Had to dump the bike but 35mins to Tangiers. - hours to Fes

 This is the centre of Cadiz. Very chilled beachside hangout. Very beutiful and calm. spent a whole day sleeping on beach..
 Aweso,e hostel too. fun pêople. theres the obligatiry australian hostle hound...seems to live in the hostel and does chores for cheap rooms. good guy
The roof top terrace with the other hostel resident stoner. very nice guy what fixes stuff...
 The ,o,ent the cycling stopped...The good old bike being put into the bus hold for the journey to Tariffa to catch the ferry to morroco. By this point I felt Id achieved what i set out to do. 820 miles from, north to south justified the bus to the ferry. That and also its impossible to cycle into and out of Cadiz
 Tarrifa. The kite surfing meca. Would love to tak up kit surfing in weymouth. gonna look into it. this place is very nice but wouldnt bother staying if youre not kite surfing. the best beach on the costa de le luz
 The ferry to Tangiers
 Ah...Fried fish. Apparently fried fish and chips were invented here and not in the uk
 Culture shock. First night in Tangiers...wasnt quite ready for it. the tallest room ever
 Tangier beach front. Its actually really developed and ,odern. However I felt an avaning and a ,orning was enough ti,e to see it all. Got the bus fro, here to Fez the next morning for 9 quid
 Going through the Atlas mountains on the bus. The clouds were dropping down over the cliffs

 The fa,ous town of chefchaouen. I didnt stop here but will definatly have a look on my next visit

 Bus break. Nothing like a mint tea next to hanging pig carcesas
 Down from the ,ountains the environ,net turns very arid and ,ars like. Beutiful in its own right
 Hopping onto our taxi with so,e guys I met on the bus
 All crammed in and heading to the old town of Fes
 First night out and first meal of Snails. The French culture is still alive and French is still taught at schools
Mint Tea in the evening on a roof terrace...Bliss
