The desert scenery alternated between the gray stony desert called hamada and the fields of sand dunes called ergs, overall some of the bleakest, most featureless landscape I've seen anywhere. The occasional stretches where the road ran along the seashore, though, revealed picturesque rocky bluffs and hid a number of photogenic shipwrecks. We had a truck lunch (one of those one roll, one slice of cheese, and one slice of turkey affairs that were so common with our group) in a gas station's parking lot near the military checkpoint into Western Sahara territory. There were only a few settlements south of that line, the largest being Laayoune, the territory's capital. Laayoune, however, looked like a ghost city that day, the streets almost completely deserted as people were home celebrating the Eid-Al-Fitr feast at Ramadan's end. The southern two-fifths or so of current Moroccan territory is also known as Western Sahara or sometimes Spanish Sahara because it was a Spanish colony into the 1970s.

Morocco Adventure Tour - Gecko's Adventures [01:53]
Morocco is considered one of the most romantic countries in the world. It boasts a heady mix of European, African, Moslem and Berber cultures along with legendary cities, ancient mud-brick kasbahs, rolling sand dunes, snow-capped mountains and an extensive and largely undeveloped coastline. There are times when you feel the Moroccan landscape has come straight out of 'Arabian Nights'. Is it really possible that a place can be both so exotic and so improbably picturesque? This, then, is the secret of Morocco, a destination that bombards the senses as we take the backroads from Casablanca to Marrakech.
