I am back home, getting back into "regular" mode. I am yet to download my pictures and reminisce about our time in Morocco, but I really feel like I had the most wonderful time out there. While I cannot claim to have seen and experienced all that Morocco has to offer, I do feel a sense that I "got" what I set out to see and do. The places we visited, the people we met, and the experiences we encountered were all truly enjoyable and memorable. While vacation destinations (including Morocco) look great on paper, it takes a lot of planning and organizational capabilities to translate that into reality- and I have to really thank you for making this happen for us! You took care of all the little details, ensuring that there was no hitch throughout the time we were on vacation. My only regret is that we could not get to meet you- that would have added another dimension to our time in Morocco. I also want to single out Abdi and Mohamed. They both took great care of us, and we truly felt secure and safe during all the travels. This left us with open minds, and able to enjoy our time and all the experiences. Both Abdi and Mohamed were very polite & helpful and their calm, friendly personalities chimed well with ours. I am not sure when I will be visiting Morocco again, but the "sad" thing will be that you will not be there to help plan a trip. But I do want to use this opportunity to wish you the very best in retirement- I am sure it is a well deserved one. And knowing you and your passion for Morocco, I am certain that Morocco "courses" in your blood, and that you will no doubt spend time there, continuing with your noble work of helping the local communities (visiting the villages and interacting with the children in the Atlas Mountains was a highlight for me!) . Thank you once again,
