Just arrived in Casablanca

Well I've just arrived in Casablanca very late, after a slightly too long flight from London and then a 2 hour wait for the luggage, got to the hotel at 2.45am. Tasha travelled on a different plane because her flight was booked later than mine, she has gone straight to Ouarzazate, where the first week of filming has been taking place. I'm accompanying Selva who is playing the part of Jesus in the film and we are staying overnight in Casablanca. We all meet up tomorrow lunch time. Casablanca evokes wonderful sepia images of Humphrey Bogart and Rick's Bar ! But the sad truth is that the whole of that film was shot on set in Hollywood and Casablanca is just another town but now with high rise tower blocks and nothing even remotely romantic about it. It's warm here about 22C at night which isn't too bad, I know that Ouarzazate will be alot warmer. The pictures are a view from the hotel in Casablanca and Selva looking quite despondent waiting for his luggage. Busy day tomorrow, so going to get some sleep.
