getting ready and am excited

will pck this eeekend and make sure I ahve everything I need. Gonna cut he grass this weekend too and it probably won't grow too much when I am gone. I may have lucked out with a place to park my car while I am gone in Calgary. I REALLY wasn't prepared to pay for long term parkig at $70 a week while I was away which meant taking the bus in to Calgary and a shuttle from the Greyhound. To make sure to be at the airport in time I would need to cathc the 2:25 AM bus from Golden. A casual conversation in the pub with a friend may provide a place to leave the car. I find out Monday and it would be so nice! After the Camino in Spain I fly to Marrakech to hook up with a tour group (Morocco Explored and they have two places left on the trip). I checked out different tour operators and these seem very good. A woman from Chilliwack with a Moroccan partner. I get to Marrakech early in the morning and meet the group late the next evening. I've arranged to stay at a hostel the first night (less than $9 Cdn) and then will check in at our hotel the next day. Robbin from Morocco Explored sent me the contact information for the hotel so I know where to go to meet the group and I checked out the hotel's website http://www.riadomar.com Very cool and unlike anywhere I have been. Well gotta go and mow the lawn. Put lots of bugdope on so that the mosquitoes don't eat me alive!
