Journey through the Atlas

Our full day in Taza was spent driving and strolling through part of the Atlas Mountains right outside of the city. The weather couldn't have been more perfect with clear skies and mild temperatures. We took several stops to get a better look at the landscape. The mountains here were once part of the same mountain chain as the Appalachians in the United States. They are made of the same limestone and the formations are incredible. We walked through a small village, saw more cats (of course, even in the mountains!) and walked through part of a cork forest (so cool!) One city left. We leave on the train shortly for Casablanca and will arrive late tonight. It's bittersweet knowing this is coming to a close soon, but I will be glad to see my family and reflect on all that I've seen.
