When Mr. Ski revived this thread earlier today it reminded my that I never posted an end to the saga of our friends who were stranded in Morocco for three months (two months more than they had originally planned on) due to the pandemic.  They got home safely about three weeks ago.  They were able to leave the campground that they were in thanks to the British Embassy.  The Embassy organized a ferry trip for UK citizens from Morocco to Spain and, through a twist of fate Chuck and Barb (our friends) were able to tag along.  Once in Spain they drove directly to Belgium where a friend lives, and then on to Amsterdam to turn in the rented camper van and catch a flight to the US.  It took ten frustrating days to get from the camp in Morocco to their home in Minnesota . . . . quite an ordeal (adventure).

Thanks for the update, ML. We are glad your friends were treated well and finally made it back home safely.

Thanks for the update.

I have been thinking the last few days what has happened to your friends.

Very nice everything worked out for them and that they are home safe.

Travel sure can be an adventure.

They make a lot of sense... I still can’t figure why some folks can’t behave for the common good. Must have missed those early preschool lessons.
