I thank my good friend Susan Kean for sharing her excellent photographs and impressions of her recent trip to Morocco. This is a continuation of Part I, which posted last week.
 |
The last part of our visit to Morocco was spent in Tangier in the North on the Mediterranean and the Atlantic. A beautiful town with European influence--since it’s literally almost only a stone’s throw from Portugal/Spain and Gibraltar.
 |
We stayed in a traditional modernized Hotel El Minzah, which was good.
 |
Our first day we visited a public garden and then were taken to St Andrews Church, which was a gift from the King of Morocco to Queen Victoria.
 |
Those who wished could sign the condolence book for the Queen, which the Ambassador was going to deliver to London the following day.
 |
| Straits of Gibraltar. Atlantic to the left; Mediterranean to the right. |
Next day, a visit to the Cape Spartel lighthouse, which is at the junction of the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea… the Straits of Gibraltar.
 |
Followed by a visit to the Rahuna Garden, the result of a dream of writer/ horticulturalist Umberto Pasti.
 |
 |
Last day we spent at the American Legation Museum and a glorious private garden owned and designed by New Zealander,Veere Grenney.
