Fez to Marrakesh

Well, the title of tonight's blog says it all.  We spent the day on our bus, traveling from Fez to Marrakesh.  We left out hotel at 7:30 this morning and arrived here at our hotel around 5:30.  My stereotype of Morocco has been negated.  I haven't seen a sandy dessert or a camel.  Today at the highest elevation of our drive we drove through "little Switzerland" with a totally different atmosphere and architecture than anything we've seen in Morocco.   Yesterday after a long, warm day in Fez I took advantage of the beautiful pool at our hotel (fortunately we have no pictures of that).  Tonight, after sitting on the bus all day I think I feel more like crashing in our room.

The scenery varies from very dry (but not desert)

To some lightly forested hills

To European style ski areas (little Switzerland)
