Hitch 2012 - Day Ten, Fez

We ate breakfast in the same place again, then got on a coach to Fez. It took hours to get there, and once we stopped we had to look for a taxi. In Fez there are different parts of the city, and a guy offered to find us a taxi and then ran off. It was so hot we didn't fight and and got a ride to the medina. We half expected us to try to scam us but instead just told us that he owned a hotel and would give us a good price to go there, but we'd already texted Nick and Charlie and wanted to stay in their hotel. When we got to the medina we had a look at all the hotels near by but they all seemed pretty expensive so we ended up staying in the place the guy from the taxi owned, for 10d cheaper than Nick and Charlie! 

We met up with them for supper and they took us round some of the stalls selling food. There was a guy who sold battered fish and chips in bread with chilli sauce which was AMAZING, and then we went to a guy who did chicken and noodles in bread. They took us down some parts of the medina where there was a camel head just hanging from the stall. There was a lot of places selling meat and animals in boxes at the side of the road. There was even a goose just wandering around! A man stopped us half way down the street and told us to come in and check out his carpets. We had some time, so followed him down an alley to his shop. He sat us on a sofa then sat on a chair in front of us and spent 20 minutes telling us about a camel tour from Fez down the East coast of Morrocco. We told him we'd already booked tickets, and so he put his tour folder away and then just chatted with us for a while. He asked which one was my boyfriend, and then when I said none of them, he asked which one was trying to get it on with me! I was laughing hysterically at this point, so he looked at the boys, pointed at Charlie and said he could in his eyes that at night he became sneaky, which we took to mean 'rapey'. He also then tried to persuade me to be his girlfriend, and said that he could just meet them at the airport when they leave. We then looked around his shop for a while, but didn't want to buy anything, so just looked around for a while then when we told him we didn't want anything, surprisingly he didn't seem to mind. We took a picture with him, and he said 'next picture she will be next to me' to which Nick agreed and shoved me next to Mohamed who put his hands around me, a little too low for my liking. We left after that and wandered around the medina a little more. We saw him again and he waved and asked me to go home with him again. I put my arm around Charlie and replied that I'd rather stay with rape eyes. Charlie didn't hear and thought I'd said something cute but Aiden and Nick cracked up and Mohamed left. We got some street cake and then headed back to our hotels to get some sleep, a arranging to meet up again in the morning.
