Je ne comprende pas!
A few nights ago I went to the Théàtre de la Mar. It's an old Fortress converted into an ampitheatre. I didn't understand much - even the title told me nothing. It was called Act III - the guy at the Information office said last year was Act II and next year will be Act IV. But the audience laughed a few times so it must have been funny. It didn't matter though. The ambiance and costumes were wonderful.
Below is another shot from the viewpoint of the sea.
I took a little boat tour, again en français. I spoke to the guide in French just to get the info and pay and asked him if he spoke English. He said a little - I wasn't expecting much of course. But once the tour started, I was incredibly curious about what I was seeing since I had been seeing all these industrial structures and machinery, etc for many days.
When the tour started he gave a written guide in Dutch to a German couple so halfway through the tour I went up and interrupted his continuous French dialogue to ask him about an English written guide. He explained he thought I could understand French since I spoke in French (what do ya know?) but apologized profusely for not giving me the attention. He didn't have an English written guide but tried, unsuccessfully, to repeat en anglais some things.
There was a story about a seal but I have no idea what the gist of it was. All the other tourists were laughing at us because he made such an effort for me and tried to act it out, yet I was getting nothing. I have a feeling his french wasn't that clear either. We all had a good chuckle and the Germans bought me a beer afterward.
Here's a ferry that goes to Morocco every day and takes 36 hours (I learned that prior to the tour).
