Long live DC! What a great FFP that was.

I'm using a lowly cropframe Nikon D7000 with a 10-24 wide-angle lens.

Every step of the way I were accosted by someone asking for money, the place was chaotic and dirty and just not a nice place to be in, pity the historical significance of these places. My partner said, we needed another holiday to get over this one. lol

Anyway, the report is looking v good so far.
Hello there. Very sorry to hear about your bad experience in Morocco. I've been there many times and never gone through what you experienced. But then again my mother's side of the family is Moroccan

Casablanca is indeed a dirty city, but in comparison to Cairo the place is heaven, LOL.

Yeah. The Ethiopian flight was originally changed from B787 to B763, so as you could imagine I was pretty happy to find out about the upgrade to B77L. As for the SQ flight, apparently they cut all their award inventory to BD that very afternoon, just moments before my friend booked the ticket. Such a shame since I've really wanted to try them out some day.
