January 26 :: Sidi Akhfennir, Morocco

January 26 :: Sidi Akhfennir, Morocco :: 113km / 809km total






On the road, just out of Tan Tan










This sign was too funny, at least for me.










Downtown Sidi Akhfennir.








The beach at Sidi Akhfennir








Good music, long day.






At 5 a.m. I woke up with a tremendous sense of urgency, dashed out of bed, and fumbled with the lock on my door. Many locks in the cheapie hotels seem to be leftovers from colonial days and are difficult to open, and this particular one was causing me grave, grave concern at the time. Finally the bolt slid across and I dashed out towards the bathroom, getting there just in the nick of five seconds too late. The next 15 minutes was a good contender for one of the worst times I've ever experienced as my body lost all seeming control of itself. Racked with pain I squatted when I had to, when not I slumped on the little communal squat toilet floor (in a 3 by 4 foot stall) naked, quivering and in a cold sweat. All I could think of was "thank God there's a hot shower in the next stall". After a shower, in a half-daze, I reset my alarm clock and collapsed back into bed. Its so glorious, this cycling through Africa.

Waking up at the regular time I tentatively made my way over to Hades... and all "went" as per normal. Alrighty then. Time to ride! 20km in a French guy stopped and took pics, of which I've posted here. The road soon found the coast, and for 80km I pedalled South with the Atlantic on my right, streching to the USA, and the desert on my left, stretching to the Nile. Headwinds made life difficult but the mileage was not huge, so no worries. A bit of rain and a bit of tailwind for the last 20km.

Sidi Akhfennir is truly a one-street town with 2 hotels; one charging 50 dirham per night (7 CDN) and the other charging 400 dirham. You can guess which one I picked. I ordered a massive 5 egg omelette from the friendly hotel man and settled in for a good sleep.
