Urban hiking in Rabat



This past week, with gorgeous fall weather (some rain yesterday and today, but the first in a month), we got out walking most days.


This map shows our travels, with each day a different color.  The GPS was not recording all the time, and the isolated points show the problems in the urban canyons where the GPS signal sometimes takes a circuitous path with reflects that lengthen the distance and confuse the positions.  At some point I will write a filter to automatically remove those points.  On some of the trips we went one way on the tram, but mostly we walked.  Destinations included a nearly park adjacent to a luxury hotel (the brown route), the art museum with an exhibit from the collections of the Spanish national bank (the orange route), and the annual Fulbright scholars Thanksgiving dinner (the red route).
