New Year 5 day Desert Tour

"I again wanted to thank you for putting together such an amazing trip. I can't seem to get the desert out of my head and find myself daydreaming about walking barefoot in the Sahara on New Year's day. It would be hard to choose a highpoint for me since everyday held its own surprises - driving through the hairpin turns of the Atlas Mountains with Omar showing us pictures of his many children on his cell phone, tea in the Sahara (made famous by song and story), the nomad children in the desert, ringing in the New Year under the most amazing star filled sky and dancing to a nomad band, again walking barefoot in the cake flour sand of the Sahara, the nomads plaintive singing while they guided us along side our camels, the camels (and people) watching the sunset, racing the SUVs across the salt flats, the beautiful mosaic tile work inside the Kasbah at Ait ben Haddou, the visit to the Berber chemist for the rash on my hand, the guides, especially Abdoullah and Khalid, who were so generous of their time and patient with their explanations both during the trip and after in Marrakech. I've come home with a better appreciation for what I have and a renewed desire to finding ways to giving back, even in small ways. I believe it was the best trip of my life and cannot wait to go back."
