On our way to Ouarzazate (wazazate)


Here we are on our way to Ouarzazate (pronounced as wa). We have to climb the Atlas range to the top and then descend to the other side. Ouarzazate is the gateway to the desert, the Sahara desert. The terrain and vegetation changes dramaatically. At the lower levels we still see the lush green fields. As we ascend we see the cloud cover below over the Marrakech valley. Berber villages are scattered everywhere in these lower elevations. It is so spectacular. We stopped to take pictures and I took a leak behind some bushes.
