I said the next entry would be from Africa. I was half right. I couldn't resist. I'm on the top deck of the ferry from Algeciras to Morocco (Tangier) I have already got my passport stamped so I'm ready to go when we arrive. The ferry is pretty empty but the passengers aboard are a mixture of Spanish, Moroccan, other Europeans and a whole tour full of Americans. They are some college group that is doing a 3 month trip and most of them don'tknow wher they are going next.

Now to return to my original reason for writing right now. I am currently seated indian style with my day pack to my right and a can of Sprite to my left. Straight ahead of me is the North coast of Africa. I am guessing that I am looking at the tail end of the Rift Mountains that touch the Mediterranean Sea.
We are following the coast of Africa to Tangier. The view is amazing.
