Casablanca

As we left for Casablanca from the desert hotel Mike became ill as well. He began to suffer from the same symptoms as Sarah. Obviously this became an issue to deal with for me, because they became very irritable and began complaining about everything. Regardless, we made the drive to the bus stop, bid Unis farewell, and got on a bus headed for Casablanca.
The bus ride was terrible! Sarah took an ambian so she went out like a sack of potatoes, but Mike and I couldn’t sleep as we sat for 10 hours and listen to people talk on the phone, and watch one lady bath her baby, washing the gross poopy water into the floor only to get all the water all over everyone’s feet.
We arrived in Casablanca around 7am, and found a hostel. It was pretty nice, but nothing too spectacular. Our taxi driver actually ran over a biker on the way to our hostel, which seemed about right considering he was going very fast in reverse the wrong way down a one way street. We began to walk over to the giant mask (3rd biggest in the world). It was actually really cool! I was really impressed that the whole thing was hand carved and hand painted. Apparently it cost $800,000,000 to construct in 1992. It was really impressive.
We then walked for a while and jumped in a taxi to go the Jewish Museum. The museum was so junky it was sad. The exhibits were just kind of thrown together. I was kind of pissed at what a joke it was, but whatever, what can you do? After that we walked on the beach for a while and then walked to our hostel for a short nap.
We woke up and headed to Rick’s Café. It was super touristy, and more of a joke than a real lace, but we ate and listened to the music from Casablanca, and made a ton of references. It ended up being expensive ($20 a plate), but was worth it for the jokes alone.
