These are just pieces of paper with all your passport details, and not forgetting your mother&#8217;s and father&#8217;s names as well. They&#8217;re very important in these parts, although I wonder if they ever check. Apparently there are a large number of checkpoints in the western sahara which is claimed by Morocco but remains internationally in dispute and I also understand that the Mauritanians have a lot of vehicle stops, however it may have more to do with them trying to enrich themselves a little beyond their meagre salary. So having all personal details on a slip of paper that you simply give them seems like an excellent time saving device, so we can get on with the nitty gritty of bribing without delay \ud83d\ude09 So I printed some extra ones out and apart from that, it&#8217;s all about waiting for the visas tomorrow. Hopefully the visa gods will be with us!<\/p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fmckinstry.ca%2F%3Fp%3D863&amp;t=Day%2010%20%E2%80%93%20Rabat%2C%20Morocco\" id=\"facebook_share_button_863\" style=\"font-size:11px; line-height:13px; font-family:'lucida grande',tahoma,verdana,arial,sans-serif; text-decoration:none; display: -moz-inline-block; display:inline-block; padding:1px 20px 0 5px; margin: 5px 0; height:15px; border:1px solid #d8dfea; color: #3B5998; background: #fff url(http:\/\/b.static.ak.fbcdn.net\/images\/share\/facebook_share_icon.gif) no-repeat top right;\">Share<\/a>\n\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\t<!--\n\tvar button = document.getElementById('facebook_share_link_863') || document.getElementById('facebook_share_icon_863') || document.getElementById('facebook_share_both_863') || document.getElementById('facebook_share_button_863');\n\tif (button) {\n\t\tbutton.onclick = function(e) {\n\t\t\tvar url = this.href.replace(\/share\\.php\/, 'sharer.php');\n\t\t\twindow.open(url,'sharer','toolbar=0,status=0,width=626,height=436');\n\t\t\treturn false;\n\t\t}\n\t\n\t\tif (button.id === 'facebook_share_button_863') {\n\t\t\tbutton.onmouseover = function(){\n\t\t\t\tthis.style.color='#fff';\n\t\t\t\tthis.style.borderColor = '#295582';\n\t\t\t\tthis.style.backgroundColor = '#3b5998';\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\tbutton.onmouseout = function(){\n\t\t\t\tthis.style.color = '#3b5998';\n\t\t\t\tthis.style.borderColor = '#d8dfea';\n\t\t\t\tthis.style.backgroundColor = '#fff';\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t}\n\t}\n\t-->\n\t<\/script>\n\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<a href=\"https:\/\/mckinstry.ca\/?p=863\"><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/mckinstry.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/MG_7842-150x150.jpg\" class=\"alignleft tfe wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a><p>September 11th, 2011 Went back to the medina to get my boot re-repaired, for free, and got some more fiche printed out.
