 Daytrip to Volubilis Located about 30 miles west of the ancient Moroccan city of Fes sits the even more ancient Roman city of Volubilis. Though Ben and I hadn't planned to visit this site, it was on the way to the main highway that would ultimately allow us to drive to Marrakech. So of course we stopped and spent an hour or two exploring the site. It was an amazingly well-preserved Roman site and even had heaps of ancient tile mosaics on many of the floors. Though virtually everyone there had arrived on a tour bus as part of some giant tour, Ben and I faithfully pulled up on our rented ride and explored the site on our own. I'm not sure how this happened, but Ben and I didn't wind up taking any pictures of one another at the site. So this is just a collection of ancient buildings and architecture. Comically enough, there was a McDonalds in the little town outside of the tourist site. Though neither of us really eat McDonalds, Ben always loves checking the place out in other countries just to see what they have on the menu. So of course we did just that. And again, I'm a little shocked and disappointed in myself that I didn't capture photos of the experience. An unusually epic fail for the both of us. |
