On the plane I had been going through the guide book planning on how to get to Ouarzazate (where I'm going to meet my parents) - looked like two full days on a bus - so I decided to check flights. I was pretty sure my parents were already in Ouarzazate and there was a flight leaving in a couple hours so I bought a ticket. Before leaving California I made sure that I had a copy of my parents itinerary - so of course I can't find it anywhere. Finally found a phone that worked and someplace that could sell me a card for it and called home. Johanna gave me the run down on the next couple days of my parents itinerary - they're not in Ouarzazate till Wednesday! I decided I didn't want to be there for two extra days so changed my flight to Wednesday afternoon and then headed for the train into central Casa. Of course I just missed the train so had to sit around for over two hours until the next one - spent it in a tea saloon - not the worst way to adjust back to Morocco.

In Casa, quickly found a hotel - I was worried since I'd called ahead and found out my usual hotel was full. Quite a travel day: five airports, four cities, two buses, two flights, a train, and a taxi!
