Fenza a gorge and Kasbah Dar Blues!

We really enjoyed our stay at the desert camp in Merzouga located in the Erg Chebbi sand dunes!

We were picked up by our guides Abdul and Fouad. After about an hour of driving they pulled over and told us that we are to enjoy the view? We looked out of the car and saw nothing but the Sahara Desert (Near Fenza) with a many large piles of dirt all lined up? So we walked up to a display? Oh? We now understand that over many years the locals have been digging wells and tunnels for the water to drain out to irrigate their fields (see display picture).

Dropping water table!
Hand dug wells!

A Gorge near El Oulia

Kasbah Dar Blues was a total surprise! We kept driving and driving.. Then we turned on to a very narrow dirt rpad!

Narrow dirt road? Our riad (Kasbah) on this road?
