Al Mishwar - Our treck

June 6, 2015

If anyone wants to look up our way to school, you'd be googling directions from the AALIM center, Meknes to the Hotel Oasis Tafilalet, Meknes.  It says it's about 2.8 miles.  

Keep in mind that there are hundreds of little alleyways not present on the map.  The AALIM center cannot be driven to, and it's not off a main road, but tucked away behind several "alleys."  I don't know, they're not "alleys" per se, you know, like they're not out of the way sketchy places, they're just part of the old medina from a time when the only things that needed to get through were people and donkeys.  Now just people use the streets :-p

This city is so clean.  No trash everywhere like in Egypt, very occasional urine smell unlike Egypt or NYC.  ..we live close to the courthouse so that might be part of it :-p but seriously, the old medina is reallyy tidy!
