Marrakesh to Taroudant (the quick way)
This was our first day with Zoe, and it turned out to be one of the best, well it would wouldn't it? w had picked Zoe up on Saturday evening at the airport and drove off in the dark towards the motorway, the plan was to stop at a service station, sleep easily and be that bit closer the next day. well that worked, it was a bit further to the motorway than I had realised - that meant driving in the dark on ordinary roads, which is a bit risky with unseen potholes and cyclists. The toll motorways have a reliably good rood surface, less traffic and the bonus of hassle free overnight stopping places.
Breakfast at a service station.
The only "breakdown" on the entire trip.
The exhaust downpipe had come undone at the manifold end. The bracket was still in place, so it just needed bolting back on. As usual help was at hand, rather more adept than me.
