Sunday 4 October

On the road again, heading further on down the coast to our staging post for the night at Imi Ouaddar.

Our journey took us through the argan forests where goats climb the trees to eat the argan berries.

To produce argan oil the goats play an important recycling role, their digestive juices dissolve the outer husk and the nuts are then recovered from their dung and lightly toasted and pulped. It takes 30kg of nuts to produce one litre of oil.

After the argan forests, the road wound its way through the foothills of the Atlas Mountains and finally to our destination, with today's searing temps of 35 degrees, the hottest to date even the camels found it too hot.
