We made it to Morocco πŸ‡²πŸ‡¦ The DFDS (ferry) websit We made it to Morocco πŸ‡²πŸ‡¦ 

The DFDS (ferry) website said 30min….but it was actually a 90 min ferry ride. And we went back in time 2 hours (which threw us off a bit!)

πŸ›ƒ We got our passports stamped in on the ferry and then had a quick bite to eat before sure we heard that it could take 3+ hours to get through customs! 

From the time we docked until we drove away from the port, we were just under an hour!

🩻 We were one of the last ones off the ferry and ended up in the last batch of x-rays. It only took a few minutes because there were only 3 vehicles. 

πŸ›ƒ We drove straight to a customs agent. He asked Randy if he had a drone or anything to declare. Then glanced inside the back 2 cabinets and sent us on our way.

πŸš™ Insurance took a couple minutes, and was €98 for 30 days (and we needed to pay with Euro cash)

πŸ’΅ I tried to take money out from the atm but was looking for one with no fee (which doesn’t exist!). BMCI has the lowest fee % and the largest max (8000 dirham), which I later learned in Chefchaouen!

And then we headed for our first night in Africa 😍

Nobody talks about the cost of prepping for an ove Nobody talks about the cost of prepping for an overlanding trip. 

This is probably why πŸ˜‚πŸ«£

Vaccines & meds alone were enough, never mind the rest of it.

I kinda wish I hadn’t added it all up. Randy saw the health costs and chose to remain oblivious to the rest!

Is it more or less than you expected? (Total in Canadian $$)
