At the bus station we bought some snacks and lunch, then boarded the bus and were on our way. We had a pit stop at Tetouan, which we originally thought was just for dropping off and picking up passengers, but we seemed to be stationed there for quite some time. Almost 45 minutes later, we were told that there was something wro...
