Morning day two. So I booked a tour to the waterfall yesterday and they've just come and picked me up on the bike
0:06
And then now we're about to jump on the bus and head to the location. So the tour in total is 190 dirham. I paid 90 deposit yesterday. Now I've got 100 left
0:18
And that brings our tour down to 365 dirham. Alright, we're on the bus. It's completely packed full
0:26
Off we go to the waterfall. It turns out I'm on the wrong bus
0:32
This one? Alright, so they had me on the wrong bus for a sec, but this is the one to the waterfall
0:43
Alright, so I had a really good nap on the bus. We've come to a stop, and I think we might be changing buses
0:51
Still trying to figure out what's going on. Alright, so I've been told we're here for a maximum of 15 minutes
0:56
there's a cafe on the side and then some people come in so I'm guessing this is
1:03
probably the best time for me to grab breakfast. Can I grab tea please
1:08
Yes, what a tea? How much is it? 10 dollars. Do you have like bread or... No, I don't have soda
1:14
No? All right I guess it's tea for breakfast. Mint tea with sugar. I asked if they had
1:22
anything else like bread or pastries they said no just tea so it tastes like toothpaste
1:35
we have arrived and the sun is at its highest it's gleaming apparently we'll be starting the tour
1:44
at the bottom of the waterfall because everyone usually goes to the top so we'll get to see a lot
1:49
more it's 600 steps down and 600 steps up so should be fun look at this
1:58
this is so scary look how deep this is I reckon this would be a good place to
2:04
skydive all right we're about to leave so apparently this is an olive farm and these are all olive trees and there you
2:16
go if you've never seen an olive tree before it feels like we're going on an
2:20
expedition yeah okay the best tour guide in the world There just random wildlife along the way We just found a monkey or a
2:33
Chimpanzee, I'm not sure what type of ape is. Oh, there's actually quite a few of them
2:39
This definitely feels like a bit of a hike Right, we have reached the market section of the hike
2:46
We've been told to follow Yusuf so I'm guessing there's no shopping on the way
2:54
So very briefly we have walked all the way from the top to you can say the halfway point
3:01
or like the middle. How gorgeous is this? How much is pomegranate juice? 15. 15? 2
3:10
Thank you so much. Alright, so I just got some pomegranate juice for 15 dirham
3:17
Okay, so I'm guessing the bridge to cross that bridge is free and then to take the boat across is maybe 20 or 50 dirham
3:24
How much is it? 20 dirham 20 dirham Okay, we are currently crossing over to the other side
3:32
Alright, so we're slowly inching across Making our way to the waterfall
3:37
Okay, so we are officially at the bottom of the waterfall. And now we can walk around, explore, get some drinks, get some food
3:46
And then we go back up the waterfall via some more hiking
3:53
It sounds very exciting. I'm looking forward to that. Okay, so I want to see if I remember how to tie this thing from yesterday
4:07
Yeah, alright, okay thank you so much. Alright, so we're making our way back up the waterfall
4:29
Apparently it's 600 steps so happy days, let's get at it. Alright, I think we're about halfway
4:34
through. Slowly getting there. Alright so the tour guide has just taken his cuts
4:42
That another 30 dirhams minus from our total Alright so in total this tour cost about 240 dirhams 190 for the actual tour and then 20 for the bridge and then 30 for the tour guide
4:59
So about 24 euros. So maybe like 22 pounds, 21 pounds, something like that
5:09
Okay, so we found some way to have lunch. And as we found out yesterday, there aren't a lot of options with vegetarian meals
5:17
So the two options being vegetable tagine or couscous tagine. I've had both yesterday and I've gone for couscous tagine because I think it tasted the best
5:30
So we're going to have that for lunch. We have some breads and a bottle of water
5:37
Happy days. I still haven't found out the price yet. but I'm sure it's fairly economical. This is what I call lunch with a view. Both a view of a
5:48
backside and a view of a view. I feel cheated. Everyone's having kebab and I'm having couscous
5:58
Happy days. Good on you mate. Our couscous has arrived. Now I'm not sure if you eat the bread
6:07
with the couscous or how it all goes but I'm kind of just freestyling aga aga
6:14
I'm halfway through my couscous it's a lot more filling than I'd expect it but
6:22
I'll see it through I'm guessing that's a palate cleanser after the meal is this whiskey
6:33
Berber whiskey Yes, you're welcome Is it part of the whole thing? Yes
6:39
Is it part? Yeah Okay, yes please Tea with mint Cheers Oh
6:45
Oh, thank you Cheers Apparently it's tea with mint I thought it was
6:51
Berber whiskey I wasn't sure what Berber whiskey was anyway But I was just intrigued
6:55
I wanted some of it 110 for lunch This is a lovely lady that made us lunch
7:06
Definitely come and check her out. Thank you very much. The food was superb, magnifique. Couscous
7:10
Yeah, amazing. I love it. See you tomorrow. Thank you so much Will do it And we are off We making our way back into the van and back into the city It been a fun trip
7:27
So it's currently 7 p.m. We've just got back into the city
7:31
and right now I'm making my way back to the hostel to just recoup, refresh
7:40
and then I can head back out for dinner and see if there's anything else to do
7:44
Alright, so right now we're down to 185 dirham. I don't feel like spending any more money
7:52
but I'm going to head out anyways and see what there is. I mean, it never stops to amaze me how busy this place is
7:59
Always, always, constantly. So these guys are here again. I'm guessing they just sell shop every evening
8:05
and just take people's money, like they did last night. Alright, so I found fries for 5 dirham
8:14
So I guess we can have that for dinner. 5 dirham is about 50 pence, so that's bang on budget
8:21
Yes, please. I've been given a piece of bread to go with my chips
8:26
Okay, so they have aubergine pate and mixed peppers. But also 5 dirham
8:34
And then that, I'm guessing, would go well with the bread. So chips, five dirhams, aubergine, peppers or something
8:41
So tenderrum or something. There's something everywhere you look
9:03
And this is where I end the video. It's been an interesting day
9:07
At least we got to do something fun today. We actually went to the waterfall which was magnificent. Those views, wow
9:15
Today we're down to 175 dirham for our last day tomorrow. If you liked this video give it a big thumbs up. If you're new to your channel hit the subscribe button, hit the notification, share with all your friends and family
