Chenini and Douiret

We ate a bad dinner at the hotel (‘tourist menu’ – we should have just asked to have whatever the locals were having on the other side of the room). Again, the restaurant was unheated and we could see our breath as we ate.

The next day, we headed to Chenini and Douiret with Mr. Baba. These are abandoned hillside villages, with more granaries (though not as grand as Ouled Sultane). We climbed to the top of Chenini, and got a great overview of the valley below and the Mosque perched just below us on top of a ridge. Douiret was in rougher shape, apart from a few granaries that had been reconstructed just a bit too well.
