Enough of all that serious stuff! Though, I will say that I woke up this morning with the phrase "Invest in your life" running through my head like an infomercial. What the heck? What does it mean? Where did it come from!?
But anyway, a few weeks ago we took Mr. Buckley to the lovely seaside town of Essaouira. First road trips are always monumental and Buckley celebrated by rolling in all the fish yuck we found on the ground.

I'm always shocked at how different one town is from another in Morocco. Essaouira is a hassle free beach bum kind of place with the freshest fish in Morocco (Don't tell the city of Safi I said that) and a Bob Marley-esq atmosphere. And I don't just say that because we were offered hashish as soon as we stepped onto the main square. It's just kind of...you know, groovy. There aren't a lot of things to "see" - we spent our time walking around in the Medina, checking out shops, and tasting things that looked good. It is quite a dog friendly place and wherever we went, ere went our dog.

I gasped out loud when I opened up this page to see your first picture. It's lovely. And I need to go there.
