We went to Tioute. The Palmery was as ever but the village was a major roadworks. The restaurant with the wonderful pink jasmine in the Palmery has been closed. A european man from the travel firm (I think Maramara) said it would not do and they must build another at the entrance to the village. That is now open and the guide says it is much better than the one in the Kasbah, but we did not eat there. It is at the entrance to the village so coaches will be able to park directly outside and there will be no need to ascend by donkey as for the Kasbah restaurant. There is also a Camping being built; The surrounding wall is up and the reception building but apparently there is quite a bit of work to be done getting facilities to each pitch and it will not be open for 3 months thereby missing this year's snowbirds. It is right by the new restaurant and will be a wonderful site to stay for a couple of nights when finished. Meanwhile you have to go a very long way round to get into the village and have to park further from the entrance to the palmery.
We left and went to the Palais Salaam for lunch and there were two Maramara coaches of Korean tourists having lunch there so perhaps the travel industry thinks Koreans don't like donkeys.
