The serious roads . . .

I said something about the road conditions yesterday, well today was beating it all. The road Midelt was like i said going over the Zaidia plains with star wars like scenes. The wind was blowing hard and the road sometimes looked like a ballet of thumble weed . . . Like the one flo had in the first office of dare digital. The afternoon i first checked in so i had a place to come back to (always play it safe and the lonely planet guide is really helping with it ) and than i set off without the big bag to Aouli , a now abandoned minning village. The road was really rough and the different bridges over the Moulaya river shaky as you can see on the picture . . But it was great fun riding it. The best however awaited me when i pushed through to the water reservoir for electrical power. The area is sealed off and you can only pass with a chaperon along the 6 km road along the artificial lake. Arrived at the other side the guards and myself started talking and i was invited to take a pretty heavy trail to see the dam from below. I must say for offroading this was divine . . Going down the steep rocky trail was like the course i took in spain but two knots up . . . The behind the scenes look i got is a little secret :) . . . Anyhow it was very very nice today . . . Hope all is well with everybody and i've started the count down to see Agnes and the kids :) . . . Happy travels . . . Toon
