Today we are dealing with health insurance. I already have mine taken care of, while Mitja should do it any day now.
I like the feeling of having one less thing to do before departure :)
Time is running and we still haven't planned any further. At least I haven't my share. I am to organize the Morocco part until entering Portugal. Somehow I think "oh, we'll manage just fine", but on the other hand it's driving me a bit nuts not knowing where I'll sleep and what bus will I take until the next city.
I examined some of travel agency's itineraries only to find them of little use and all the same. Since we're starting in Marrakech and going upwards, I am not planning to visit the high areas and the dessert (and no camel ride for me, sadly... but maybe I'll leave that for another journey, to - let's say - Egypt :))
I think it would be a good idea to have a place to sleep day 1, since we land in late evening and I don't think we'll be much enthusiast about searching for accommodation, but for the remaining days we'll just ask around. I read an excellent article in Horizont about a couple getting hotels beds for as little as 4,00 €. But I am not sure we'll have the same luck :)

Planning
We are planning a Portugal & Morocco trip in September 2007 and finally we have begun some more serious work on the matter. We are currently examining transfer possibilities, airplane and train connections and planning a rough route.
Hopefully we buy the plane tickets today :)
Our 3-weeks trip will include 1 week in Morocco and 2 weeks in Portugal, low-budget and backpacking, using local transport connections and sleeping in hostel and camping grounds.
Below you can see our first rough journey plan. Will need to be updated, of course :)
