Excursion to the countryside of Larache-Ain Khamasa
As the students had worked so hard in the last week, we decided to reward them with a trip to Ain Khamasa, a natural source some 15 kilometers from Larache.
Actually, the spring itself is source of legend. It was apparently built, (or at least the housing structure that we see now) by a Spanish man in the 19th century. Apparently, this man searched all over Europe for a cure to a certain skin affliction without being to find a cure. He heard talk of a spring in Morocco where the waters could cure such a thing, came and of course...the water cured him. As a show of gratitude he erected the structure that now protects the spring.
This is Seloua, our fearless instructor for the chapters 3,4, and 5 in the course.
After a heated game of soccer it was the time to get down to some cooking. The kitchen squad wasted no time beginning to preparar the tajines.
Some worked while others a little tired, could not resist the urge to take a snooze in the afternoon shade.
And....its the moment! The chefs present the exquisite dishes they have prepared, barbecue fish tajines.
Spending the afternoon together, in this beautiful place, getting to know each other better.
