We got a huge charge out of various people's reactions to us. Wael looks Moroccan, like he should speak Moroccan Arabic. And I look pretty foreign, like I shouldn't. On MANY occasions people spoke to Wael in Moroccan Arabic and when he turned to me confused, I answered. And then we would move on, leaving that person scratching his head.
In Essaouira

Lunch with everyone in Essaouira
We rented a car to be more comfortable and save money. Neither of which happened!
The Marina in Agadir
Because we had the car we got to do cool things like go to Agadir Oufalla at night!
The road from my house to Tiznit. The first time I've been able to take pictures along the way!
Wael and Chandler bonding at my house for lunch.

It's pretty frustrating indeed how other Arabs do not make enough efforts to understand Moroccan Arabic, using the two old excuses: 1) Oh, you Moroccans speak too fast. 2) Oh, you Moroccans do not speak pure Arabic, you have a lot of French and Spanish and Berber in it.
haha im sure people were so confused, love that!! the pretty blond girl breaking out her arabic, so cool!
