Heat
This people in Zagora are funny. This other guy told me the other that it was a little cold at night.
“When?” I asked him.
“I think at 5am in the morning,” he answered.
He was serious too! I woke up one morning at 5am. My throat was dry and raspy and I had to French kiss the bottle of water next to my bed before I could breathe in without choking on the dry air. There mght have been a slight chill in the air, or maybe, my body had dried out to a husk and I was only skin covering bones left.
This is only the beginning of summer here. In the heart of summer they probably set themselves alight to cool down. On the upside I found more roads that were tarred. They were basically short roads that joined the other two but hey, who’s complaining about the state of the roads when it’s so hot.
You never see single storey houses even though there’s loads of space. I suppose that’s so that things don’t get too far apart to walk in the heat. Gotta go, gotta find another bottle of water to French kiss.
It wouldn’t kill them to at least have fridges that actually keep beverages below room temperature. But I suppose they figure that keeping it from being burning hot is effort enough. Two more hours till my bus…

Shot for the offer but it seems I need to apply from SA to get a shengen visa so Europe is not looking good. I might still courier my passport to SA if I really need to, but it looks like I’ll just pass on the Sweden thing.

Pitty, about the Eurpean trip I know its had getting in there if you don’t have the necesary paperwork, are you able to go anywhere else without a visa?? Libiya, Tunisia?? Egypt??
Casablanca, Top Billing had an interesting documentary on that town a short while ago. The shouks looked very interesting and I’d most certainly hang out there. There were some interesting belly dancers who were displaying every inch of the hips and bellies. Blime, is that why you went bra? haaa!
Whatever the reason, I envy you bru, liv it up big time!
