Lucy-Jo, Darren & Roz's Discovery, Steve & Vanessa's Range Rover at services off the A3 near Milford
Lined up waiting to enter the docks at Portsmouth
Ready to go after a nights rest in the middle of Spain
The Arc de Triumph at the ruined Roman city of Volubolis
Vegetables at the typical moroccan market at Ouazzane
Buying steak at the market at Ouazzane
Stop to admire the view and buy momentos at a roadside stall
Lucy-Jo
The lunch stop on day two in Morocco put a lump in my throat. Tranquil
This is what I came on this trip for!
Lucy-Jo
Around every corner was another stunning view up in the High Atlas mountains
The photo's just can't do these views justice
I could have taken rolls and rolls of film with views like this
Our campsite at 6000ft in the Cedar Forest was as cold as it was beautiful
Lucy-Jo pauses to admire the view
No time to stop for photos on these winding mountain tracks
The convoy winds its way through the valleys
The lunch stop on day three was near this well engineered little bridge
This sign warns of roadworks - I think!
The scenery becomes less green as we drive south
We're getting nearer to the snow capped mountains now
The "dried up" river bed wasn't. Darren splashes along
We carried fire wood as we were expecting to camp above the tree line
This was fun off-roading
We came round the corner to this gorgeous view of freshwater Lake Itzer at 7000ft
Lake Itzer early in the morning
The auberge we stayed at overlooking lake Itzer
The view from 9500ft down the Todra Gorge was stunning. The photo doesn't really convey the vertical drop. Gulp!
Driving down the hairpin track with white-knuckle drops
Tinehir from the nearby 300ft hill
Near the top of the Todra Gorge
Lucy-Jo got dusty down the Todra Gorge
The landscape gets drier and dustier
Winding through a small oasis
There are trees in some parts of the desert
Even the good tarmac roads have gaps to keep you on your toes
The local bus!
The Trailmasters truck got tired (sorry!)
The cracks show why rock don't make good axle stands
Looking over Tinehir
The view from a hill half a mile from the campsite just outside Tinehir
A brief stop to admire the panorama
Left to Squiggle or right to Wiggle? We turned right....
The convoy making fresh tracks across the desert
The picturesque oasis campsite at Meski
Lucy-Jo at 6200ft in the Sierra Nevada mountains (Spain)
There was snow at 6200ft in the Sierra Nevada mountains
It was a long way up, so Lucy-Jo takes a short well deserved break before descending
