Chefchaouen

Now this place is beautiful. It's a small town 3h south by bus from Tangier. CTM bus was 50 or 60 dirhams and actually on time. Right at the beginning of the Rif mountains. For those who don't now the Rif or it's product  this is the mountain region where most of the whole worlds hashish comes from. Nice. Estimated about 50% of the total hashish production on the whole planet. Where these numbers come from, I havent got an idea. And apparently it's been around since the 7th century. Chefchaouens medina is eceptionally beautiful. It's small and narrow and almost completely blue.








 And finally here she is!! They were sowing at the moment but some fields already had germinated little girls. This was just over a month ago. I want to do a quick stop there again on my way to Melilla just to see how they have grown in a months time.
