i dont know what to call this post says yona


today is friday the 23 of august. we're in a little tiny room/internet cafe thing which is hot and has weird slanty chairs but i'm not complaining because we were able to do something so that keyboard is ignoring the letters it says on the keys and we can type normally. yesterday it was so impossible and i was going to write ...the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog ... and see what funny thing it wrote instead. but it doesn't matter. anyway. it's hot today. we walked to the new town and went to a really cool garden called majorelle. it was really really lovely. beatuiful with lots of bamboo that was really thick, and lilly pads, and tons of cacti and succulents. really lovely. then we walked around a lot. then we walked around more. and we walked and walked. then we took a taxi to a hotel we read about that said there would be a nice lunch buffet and la di da. but they turned us away at the door because we 're not guests there and we aren't dressed up enough. we've been mostly dressed up, with josh in a nice button down every day and me in a skirt every day but today i'm wearing long shorts and josh is in a tshirt. alas. it's so hot here. last night we went to the jmaa el fna again which is the cool crazy market place. we like getting orange juice there and it's just a funny crazy place. people charming snakes, with monkeys doing tricks, fortune telling, story telling in a performing way, and sometimes to music... it's really interesting. last night we saw someone with some gerbils and birds and a hedge hog thing, and he kept putting the hedge hog thing under a hat and we'd all watch the hat crawl away bouncing up and down. i had a yougurt drink yesterday that i liked and it was called yogo. and last night at dinner i had another one that was really really good. it was called yourt. it was with a spoon and kind of sweet. yum-my.

i think in 3rd world countries, the standard recommendation for food/drink is "hot foods hot". orange juice is not hot, neither is yogurt drink! Don't ruin your health/vacation by getting sick. Oh yeah, glad you are having fun!

The guidebook says the OJ in the park is ok. Besides, how can something that costs 35 cents make you sick? One yogurt was in a sealed container. The other, well, never mind. But yogurt only gets more yogurty with time.
