Day 29 – Foum Zguid
As we had visited the market yesterday there was no need for a late departure today so we set off at around 10:30am as usual. Terry and Derek were going to follow as they were night quite ready.
The road is boring…. very flat and uninteresting. The only real thing to say is that our speed was constant and we arrived here around 12:30pm. We did see some brave cyclists who were obviously light weight camping but cycling in this heat was truly stupid in my opinion.
On arrival the big decision was how we were to park. The ladies got together and soon had a plan. However there was no consideration of where we were going to plug in the electric cables as there were already two french vans using the power points for the pitches they wanted to use. No matter we did eventually get over this hurdle. The voltage across the site and I understand the town is low so some of our modern fridges would not stay on electric but would switch back to gas. Not good.
The afternoon was spent catching up with things. Tina visited the title lockup just outside of the campsite and organised having some alterations made to the clothes she has bought since being her. The charge is 70p per garment…. extraordinary. She also purchased a black shawl which has an amazing amount of detail… you must ask her to show it to you next time we meet. We visited Terry & Brenda for the evening as we used to do last year. We had missed doing this.
Tomorrow is going to be a busy day. First we may relocate if a french van moves as he has stated followed by a day of washing. Great joy … Perhaps we will wander up to the town and have a meal.
