Welcome to Gorge Du Todra. A village with climbing opportunities and breathtaking views. I met a great couple from Switzerland and they showed me the ropes around here. Im camped out at a roof terrace that faces the cliffs I climbed that day and the milky way (great shots from my dslr). No rush to leave this valley!

After on hour of camel riding back to the hotel I hit the road running. Full sails ahead I had 3 options for targets in mind for the day. Hotel 60 kilometers away at arfoud, desert camp at 80 kilometers, desert camp at 100 kilometers. I got to my first goal in time for lunch and with 7 hours of sun I wasnt even close to stopping. I also wasnt sure of the camping, since it was wild, but since there where plenty of caravans of 4x4 passing by I took my chance knowing I can flag them down. My 80 would have been fine but I still had enough light so I pushed it to 100, then 110, eh 120 kilometers looks fine. I pull over and run into the desert when no cars are around. I still dont know if the mans voice was a camped nomad or could have been someone passing by the road. Alone, with no sun light, I took no chance and headed to the closest town. 150 MAD (less than $20 bucks) i have wifi, a place to organize my equipment, some sort of animal rug, and no mysterious loud voices. 149 kilometers today of desert cycling! Along the way i ran into my first mirage that I was able to take a picture. It was a new gas station that hasn't opened yet. I could see it for 15 minutes and was happy I would enjoy a cold refreshing drink since the water I was carrying was a bit warmer than body temperature. About 15 kilometers later I ran into a valley with date farms. I pulled over at the cafe bar and ordered 3 liters of "miami" orange juice. Taste like tropicana and Ive never enjoyed a drink more in my life considering my circumstance. Next to me was Irham, a construction worker that lived in Barcelona and we could communicate in spanish. When I asked him about the dates and the closet market I could get some he said there are none but told me to wait. A few minutes later he has over a kilo and now we are enjoying them together. I pull money out and he declines. We shared a few stories and I continued on. Tomorrows ride is only 50 k and its a rock climbing gem. I hope to meet some climbers, make new friends and stay a couple of days. Good night all!
