marrakech memory lane tour

Marrakech 19 november 2025

On our last day, we visited beautiful places with special memories. On our Pikala bikes we cycled to the Moro Hotel, where we stayed a few years ago, for a drink.

And off we go on our bikes to the Palmaraie and for lunch at the hotel Les Deux Tours.

Drinks at Le Jardin and dinner in the evening overlooking a steaming Djemaa at restaurant MoMo.

One more night in Maison Demi and then back home.

What an amazing trip we had. So many new impressions and places and also wonderful to revisit old familiar places. Morocco remains magical!

costa nova

Costa Nova - Sunday 21th of June - day 3 of our roadtrip 2020

On Sunday the first day of Summer we went to Costa Nova.
The most picturesque image of the Costa Nova are the wooden houses with stripes in bright colors, with contrasting white stripes. They used to be built by the fishermen for shelter and to store the fishing tackle and are now restored. Nowadays they serve as pleasant holiday homes.

After lunch we visited Praia da Costa Nova, a sandy beach with dunes at the rough ocean, which is mainly visited by many surfers. Since we were there on Sunday, it was slightly busier than usual, because the locals obviously had also pulled out to the beach.

The visit to Costa Nova was also a trip down memory lane. In the summer of 2009 we drove with the children to Portugal in a camper and stayed for a few days in Costa Nova.

Because there was enough space in the camper, I took crochet blankets, my first stool and some handmade pillows. And my heavy Kronan bike, where we did a 'photoshoot' in Costa Nova. Not much has changed...
