Our route today is up and then down as we cross over the Atlas Mountains.  At this time of year the snow has gone and we are high up.

We have a very basic lunch at a small place high in the hills, where precisely I do not know.  There are not many stopping places along the route.

The route has numerous twists and turns – not always easy to photograph as we travel along and we also suffered some heavy cloud at one point, so I appear to be missing the classic shot and this is about the best I can find.

Our destination is Taroudant – specifically Hotel Dar Zitoune Taroudant – which we specifically recall as a very welcome and restful place with an attractive pool.  We are here for a couple of nights before we move on again.
