Laurie came here “to discover Morocco”. She calmly explains how she takes in the desert, the landscapes, how she’s making the most of each second, how the long stage was one of the most beautiful days of her life – and seeing her smile, one does believe her. Michele is fascinated by the cultural diversity of the bivouac. She was sick for a couple of days, but held on, and made an amazing come back, causing great admiration amongst her tent-mates. None but them knew how sick she was, and Michele did not look for sympathy. Indeed, Laurie and Michele are all positive energy.
