Tangier - Meeting point of Mediterranean sea and Atlantic & The Grote of Hercules, Morocco, May 2018

The most important place where all tourist from Europe are driven is Cape Spartel were the Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean Meet. From the Ferry our Guide drove us strait to this unique  point, stopping only at some other places on the way to sea some Palaces from the gates. On the top of Cape Spartel there is one pol with two sipple wood narrows, where is printed in French – Mer Mediterranee  (Mediterranean Sea Sea) and Ocean Atlantique (Atlantic Ocean). We stopped there look around and took photos of tree of us in front ot it for proof, that we really were here. After tha we continued down on the road to the Ocean. It was marvelous view to the beaches. But there weer anybody there, only camels waiting for tourist to take a pictures with theme. We with Margy already climbed camels on the dunes in Kuwait and I only took some photos of them. After camels beach we continued to the second main point of Interests in Tangier – The Cave – Grotto of Hercules. On the Entrance one Parrott was selling I tickets and posed for pictures  too. The lighting inside was not very good and was forbidden to use flash-lights. There were souvenir store too.
On the back way we stopped in some souvenir store, when I bought my Muslim round red hat (fes) and traditional T-shirt. We crossed the local market and went for lunch in luxury Moroccan restaurant to eat traditional sea food.
After the lunch we drove back the Ferry and later float back to Europe from Africa. It was my 4-th African country to visit : Mozambique, Angola, Egypt and Morocco. It was wonderful journey! Enjoy my photos.
