We drove from Casablanca to Chefchaouen. It sounds easy, but the journey was 320 km long and took more than 4 hours. At least we saw the north of the country, which is the complete opposite of the sandy south. This part is green and completely agricultural. They grow food for the whole country here. 
We chose a construction site for one stop so Urban could see the excavator. A worker brought Klara a pomegranate and from there we all drank and ate it, yum.
The town is closed to traffic and Vasko was once again performing his adrenaline-pumping maneuvers to get us a parking space. I won't even describe it because it was similar to Casablanca... I'm more for Let's walk a few meters or 100 more. as I'll drive down a 20% gravel slope wide enough for two donkeys just to get exactly where Google Maps is taking me.
In short, we arrived at the blue spot. This point was immediately in second place on my must see list in Morocco. Loaded with luggage, we walked to our apartment. When we got there, there was a line right in front of our door to take photos. We chose a very basic accommodation but on the most photogenic street in the city. We took photos first thing in the morning before the rest of the city woke up.
We then walked around Chefchaouen wearing everything we had with us. It was quite cold. Especially in the morning before the sun came up. We had such cute apartment with a really beautiful terrace and a view of the city and the nearby hills.
We didn't do anything special. We walked through the alleys, ate well, bargained, and bought souvenirs. I finally got a dog tattoo.
Chefchaouen lies at an altitude of 564m, part of the Rif Mountains, which is known for its kif (marijuana) plantations. A popular destination for young people. Vasko has received quite a few offers for joint . We were mostly all together, a young family. But when Vasko went to have a cigarette (he usually moves a little away) they immediately started offering him grass.
Why is it blue? There are several theories. The Jews are said to have chosen blue when they fled Hitler to Chefchaouen. The color blue is said to repel mosquitoes. The last theory is that they chose blue because it represents the sea and the sky.
They definitely chose well because the city is really full of tourists. Lots of Spaniards because it's close to Ceuta, but also Chinese who probably come for 1001 photos.
We enjoyed the main square, exploring all the little blue streets and sipping pomegranate juice. Here we finally found Moroccan donuts, oh my god , something really cool! We waited in line with the locals for half an hour , got fresh and greased everything. Mmm ...
From here we slowly headed back towards Fes, Volubilis and home!
