Rock the Kasbah

CHAPTER 16

We left Casablanca and headed south. Marrakech was directly in our way, but we bypassed it knowing we would return to meet Jake and Jackie there in a few days’ time. Instead, we felt our way further south into the ragged peaks and valleys of the Atlas. Our first stop was the Kasbah de Telouet, a jumble of ruined buildings tucked away in the crook of an offshoot valley. This place must have been quite the sight back in the day, but was now definitely in the realm of Indiana Jones. Sometimes I lament that the world has turned into one big tourist attraction, but don’t despair, there are still wild and unexplored places on this big blue marble- and the Kasbah de Telouet fit that bill perfectly.
