The grounds of the hotel with Martize in the corner
This is us in the snow. The building of a legendary snowman and an epic snow ball fight followed the taking of this picture.
One of the pictures resulting from the trash photo hunt. I think they felt bad for the donkey.
Anne got henna for the xutoba.
Here is a picture of the souk from our bedroom window. It is pretty big.
Alice is the oldest current PCV. All of us feel very privileged to serve with her. I think she is 85.
Milui
Down the river (note Matt and Martize in the corner)
Matthew often pretended to be Gandalf throughout CBT. He never did find a good staff, though.
Kids from the camp
Here are Katie and Lisa, two of the most encouraging and cheerful people you will meet.
Horse cart!
Floating Head Matthew
Peyton and me
Men and women praying outside in Casablanca
View of the waterfalls from the bottom
View of Avignon from the Palais de Papes (Palais of the Popes).
Horses charging at the musm.
Tree house
Guys hanging out watching soccer on the other side of the wall.
So happy to be new PCVs!
After… Package 2
One of Anne’s favorite shots from the trip
Sunset from our bedroom window
After… Package 1
Anne got henna for the xutoba.
Three lovely ladies!
Here is Santiago. He was full of energy and you would often find him bundled up in his sleeping bag during class.
I put this picture in the album not because it was a common site, but because it was a rare site. Most cities in Morocco have many donkeys. This unfortunately was the ONLY donkey in our training site.
Here is Matthew trying to keep warm in his jellaba and blanket.
Our CBT (most of us anyway) with the US Ambassador.
This is the Youth Center where we spent time teaching English and doing activities with some of the youth. Unfortunately, the snow was also a common site.
Palais de Papes
Mid-west Region
Oh and we also saw some Barbary Apes
Here is our wonderful teacher Hind, always close by to the heater.
Here is Joseph, 3rd time Peace Corps Volunteer. That man is a wealth of experience and knowledge.
The girl who ended up not taking as many photos as she thought did take this one and really liked it so I thought I would post it for many to see.
95 of us Swore-in as official Peace Corps Volunteers on April 1, 2015.
Our wonderful CBT group!
Gigondas
This is the street we lived on. The strange things we put on our classroom walls make a little more sense after seeing this depressing picture.
