These are rather pleasantly addictive (I wonder if I can do them on my iPhone?). National Geographic online jigsaw puzzles made from outstanding reader-submitted photos. Turn up the volume so you can hear that satisfying sound when your pieces “click” into place.

asilah-rug

This is the rug I bought in Asilah last month – isn’t it pretty?

We got there in plenty of time to have coffee and toast at the aptly named Carpe Diem café, and then made our way to the port across the street.  Arriving at the port in Tangier was the beginning of a four-day adventure that was nothing I could have imagined …
