Also, I didn’t want to get lost, so I decided to head for the big park near the hotel (Parc de la Ligue Arabe) and do some laps there.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-223" src="http://morocco.chickenfactory.ch/wp-content/uploads/casa_park_inside_600.jpg" alt="Parc de la Ligue Arabe" width="600" height="193" /></p>
<p><a href="http://morocco.chickenfactory.ch/wp-content/uploads/casa_jogging_768.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-222" src="http://morocco.chickenfactory.ch/wp-content/uploads/casa_jogging_768-225x300.jpg" alt="TV Obersiggenthal in Casablanca" width="225" height="300" /></a>It turned out to be a nice experience. The park itself is well maintained, even though some playground installations from the sixties are locked away (at least it looked like). I saw couples walking hand-in-hand or sitting on a bench, young boys playing football, families with their dogs and old men playing <a title="Pétanque (Wikipedia)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P%C3%A9tanque" target="_blank">Pétanque</a>. I was the only jogger, but I still didn’t feel like an alien from outer space. A young guy with Rasta hair smiled at me and gave a thumbs-up. Such gestures and a sound mix of <a title="Linkin Park (official website)" href="www.linkinpark.com" target="_blank">Linkin Park</a>, <a title="Sunrise Avenue (official website)" href="http://www.sunriseave.com" target="_blank">Sunrise Avenue</a>, <a title="Die Toten Hosen - official website" href="http://www.dietotenhosen.de" target="_blank">Toten Hosen</a> and <a title="QL (official website)" href="http://www.funpunk.ch" target="_blank">QL</a> in my ears gave an additional boost for my exercise. <img src="http://morocco.chickenfactory.ch/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" class="wp-smiley" /> </p>
