You can imagine how much we're anticipating moving closer to the city again! Technically, it's only a mile or so closer, but it's so close to the commuter train service that it should be a matter of wandering out of bed on a Saturday morning, grabbing a quick coffee and a shower and staggering onto the train for breakfast and shopping in the city centre - which is the only place there's a decent market within practical distance. We should even be able to bring the dogs.

Alas, I've never been there. But I remember my childhood in Morocco...
