We stop for lunch at a lovely hotel in the middle of nowhere.
We drive to the cedar forest, which is a national preservation and is inhabited by monkeys called Barbary apes, the same ones found on Gibraltar. A man, a Berber, named Mohammed, and his daughter meet us. He is a retired teacher. He tells us about the importance of the forest and the area. His daughter is on a full scholarship to the only private university in Morocco, a very prestigious and VERY expensive school. Her older brother also attended that university.
If it were not raining, we would go for a walk in the forest.
We did not see any monkeys although we heard them.
On to Fes where we stay at the wonderful Palais Jamai in the medina, our most luxurious hotel.
