As Craig is still making his way to Morocco via a 48 hour ferry, I am now stuck at the airport having missed my flight, pondering what to do with myself as there are no more flights going. The travel mission continues and FINALLY we are reunited after what seems to be the longest two days of our lives 😂 As a solo female traveller - I think the world would swallow me up haha! Group travel is the only way for me 😂😂 Get me back to van life - it's safer 😆 The adventure - 🇲🇦 🥳 Woohoo where we've decided we don't want another cold winter in the UK. Our mates @eamonandbec mentioned they'd be heading back to Morocco to pick up their van trinity and we couldn't think of a lovelier place to van life & spend Christmas 🎄 Thanks so much to everyone old and new for coming on this adventure with us! 😊✌️❤️

Last week on Kingin' It.
In our attempt to get to Morocco with our van Custard, we had to part ways.
Our only option to get the van shipped across was a 48 hour ferry
from Marseille in France to Tangier in Morocco.
Amy gets extremely boat sick
and she also gets very anxious before flying.
I love a traveller.
But we thought this would be the better option.
Craig boarded the ferry with Custard
and after a bit of a palaver,
he managed to make it on board
and was floating across the Balearic Sea.
In Casablanca, however, Amy managed to get her first flight from Marseille
but missed the second one to Tangier, where we were supposed to meet.
Amy is now stuck in Mohamed V Airport in Casablanca and it's midnight.
I am in the middle of the sea with no signal and no clue what's going on.
You can always rely on Captain B for a wonky story line.
Bollocks.
So follow our story live on our Instagram
and press subscribe to see how our story in Morocco unfolds.
Oh, Amy.
Do I sleep here?
Or...
This is super uncomfortable.
But I'm doing it anyway.
I don't know how I get myself into these situations.
I really wish Craig was here right now.
I'm not even joking you, I've missed the flight.
I have no idea how I've done it
because I was sat right outside the gate.
Whether they changed the gate and boarded from a different gate,
I don't know.
There's no more flights going tonight.
The girl was like, you can get a train.
You can get a fast train that could get you there tonight.
And I was like, OK, I'll do that.
But she's like, no, they don't go now.
So you have to wait until seven o'clock in the morning.
I'm like, do I sleep here?
Oh, wow.
Just knew it.
There had to be something that I did wrong.
I haven't heard from Amy at all.
And I've gone on to the booking that I made.
And Amy's messaged the hotel saying, I've missed my flight.
I asked for a shuttle.
Please let them know I'll not make it.
I'll check in tomorrow instead.
I don't know what's gone on.
She must have stayed at Casablanca and missed her flight.
Hopefully, she just found a hotel.
It should be easy enough to do that.
This just wouldn't have happened if I was with Craig.
It's fine.
I'm just gutted about the bed.
So I don't know where I'm going.
Lots of people are pointing and checking my passport.
Oh, yeah, luggage.
No idea, mate.
No idea.
Probably made it to Tangier, where I was supposed to be going.
So I don't know how I'm going to get there.
Bollocks.
And just to top it all off, the Moroccan airport
is like, internet, are you huge for 15 minutes?
Sorry about that.
So I can't contact anybody.
Not that I'm going to ring my mum and be like,
can you come get me, but.
She hasn't checked in.
That's the only thing I'm worried about.
I literally feel a bit sick because I'm
so worried about her.
Oh, Amy.
She had one job to get two flights.
She's missed the second one.
Only Captain B, and she hasn't even messaged me.
I don't even know where she is or what she's doing.
But I hope she's figuring it out.
Given the current circumstance, I
thought that the most smart thing to do
would be to get some data on my phone.
So 50 quid later, we've got some data
to book a train or something.
I am not smart.
Lovely guy has told me that because I didn't take off
on the plane, my luggage wouldn't have taken off
on the plane.
So apparently, it would still be here in Casablanca.
So he's called his friend, and he's gone to pick it up,
I think, I hope.
So yeah, plan of attack, get the luggage, take the hair off,
take the makeup off, and then sleep in the airport
for nine hours until I can get a fast train in the morning.
Oh, thank god for that.
Brilliant.
Oh.
Just smashed my head on that bed.
I feel so dizzy and sick.
You know when you hit your head really hard
and you just don't know what happened?
I got up off the bed to grab something
and jumped back on the bed and just cracked it on the wood.
It is not fun at all.
Ah.
We just shouldn't be alone, the pair of us.
We're useless when we're apart.
All right, time for some dinner.
I've been doing some editing.
My only friend is the TV.
But it's a good little test, this.
I think going out and just doing something on your own,
because especially when you're in a couple,
you get so used to just being with that person
and just having them there, you know, to make you laugh or to talk.
So when you're completely isolated, it's really strange.
So I'm just going to go and eat my dinner on my own now.
Not bad.
All right, looks like this is home for the next nine hours.
There's no one really about, but there is a guy over there laying down.
I wish I had his seat.
There's not that many people here.
That's not a problem.
It's just like if I fart in my sleep, that guy's going to lose me.
I hope Amy's managed to find a spot to watch the sunset tonight.
Ah, it's been a nice day.
It's been quite nice.
I've had a little sunbathe on the deck, did some editing,
had a cup of tea, which cost about three euros,
and I've just got one more sleep.
And then I'll be in Morocco.
The wind has picked up, so I'm hoping it won't be choppy tonight
when I'm trying to sleep.
It's gorgeous.
So good being out on the ocean, man.
So nice.
Literally one of the best sunsets I've ever seen.
I feel like the sun is going for a little swim.
It's believable.
So good, man.
Everyone loves a sunset.
Have you ever met anybody who's been on a sunset?
Because everybody loves them.
Time for some pasta.
OK, so I've been spending about 25 minutes on the floor.
I've decided against staying at it.
I'm going to go to the nearest hotel and see if they've got a spot for me.
Anxiety's kicking in a bit too much.
I don't think I'm going to sleep at all.
And also, like, lack of sleep is what brings all my anxiety.
So this is probably a really bad idea.
So I'm just going to go to a hotel, rest for the night,
and then wake up and get a train in the morning.
Well, I actually don't know what's going on, but I'm in Hotel Onomo.
Onomo?
Onomo.
Bus, shuttle bus.
I'm hoping if he takes me to the hotel, I'll be able to book in when I get there.
I hope it's the closest one.
I hope it's cheap.
Oh, my goodness.
We are blessed, lads.
There was one other person on that shuttle bus with me
who could tell me how far away it was, how much this actual hotel costs.
And he spoke English and he really helped me out.
So if you're watching, which I know you're not, thank you so much.
One what, where am I?
One, three, four.
That'll do nicely.
Oh, class.
Morocco one, Amy Mill.
See you in the morning.
My mum always said, don't play with your food,
but I've got to entertain myself somehow.
So this game is called Pasta Ya Bedtime.
Every time I catch a piece of my mouth, I get a point.
One point.
Two points.
I wonder what Amy's eating for dinner.
She's in the Hilton.
I'm in a little cabin on my own.
I think this is what they call cabin fever.
I've cracked, lads. It only took me a day.
Let's go and see her mum about a train.
Good, good. Thank you.
I am really struggling this morning.
I didn't sleep very well last night.
Anxiety is out in full force today.
And I've only had like half a wrap since yesterday morning.
So the fatigue and my bags are so heavy.
Thank God I found a trolley.
But I've been passed from pillar to post this morning,
running around like a headless chicken.
And that's just not what I need right now.
But I think I've made my way to the train station.
It's 12 o'clock.
I kind of took my time this morning in the hotel.
I really need to sit down and breathe, I think.
But I guess I'm just trying to make light of the situation, you know.
But just know, this is super uncomfortable.
But I'm doing it anyway.
This is my friend Hamza.
He saw me as a lost sheep and he's picked me up
and he's going to take me to the train station.
Merci beaucoup.
I would like a fast train to Tangier.
OK, perfect.
Yeah, OK.
Where do I go now?
Four.
OK.
Merci beaucoup.
Thank you.
OK.
I'm not sure what to do with masks here.
Some people are wearing them, some people aren't.
It's just steaming up my glasses and giving me more anxiety.
Pretty sure this is my train.
Just before he gave me the ticket, he was like,
so you have to take two stops and then change.
I was like, for God's sake, you know I'm not very good at this.
I'm going to try my best to get this right.
Yeah.
Honestly, I don't know how I get myself into these situations.
I really wish Craig was here right now.
All right.
I guess this is me for I don't know how long.
I don't know when two stops go and then I get off.
But I need to sit down, man.
I mean, it's a great way to see part of the country, you know?
I feel like if I'd got on the plane,
I would never have seen this.
I wouldn't have had a lovely train journey
through the hills of Morocco.
So in a way, it was probably a good thing that I missed the flight.
But yeah, please, everybody pray for me because I've got to change.
Which, as you know, like connecting things
don't usually work out well for me.
So if you can all spare a thought for me today.
Anxiety is at like a thousand percent.
I'm looking forward to getting there.
And I'm just as soon as I get off this train,
I'm going to ask every single person that I come across
for information to get me on the next train.
I will get there today.

I've just had the wave come over me.
I guess with all the rushing and all the anxiety and stuff,
I just, I forgot to enjoy it and I forgot where I am.
And now I'm seeing real life people
and you know, I'm actually in the thick of it.
I'm really excited to be here.
Oh man.
Yeah, I can't wait for Craig to get back
so we can actually do some exploring.
I did have like a full day planned for today in Tangier,
but obviously that didn't go to plan.
This is just a matter of everybody's got left and moved.
So I have to, I'm hoping we're all going to the same place.
I'm hoping something on there says Tangier.
Okay.
We're doing it.
Angel Medina.
So this is what Tangier was supposed to look like.
Want to know the best news in the whole entire world
that you've ever heard ever?
That's the train station.
And that's my hotel.
Oh yeah, Shelton.
Morning team.
Slept really well last night.
There was no rocking at all.
I'm here with Amy.
I just wanted to say as well, Amy,
no matter how you got there, I'm hoping you got there.
However you dealt with it,
I know that so many people look up to you
and you give so many people strength
because of how brave you are
with dealing with your anxiety whilst you travel.
I know it's probably one of the toughest things
you've ever done.
So I'm so proud of you, honestly.
And I've missed you so much on these two days.
It's bonkers.
Can't wait to tell you about this boat.
But yeah, you're a little champion, babes.
Oh, I'm thinking about it the more, it's just so exciting.
I've just seen, which is Algeria.
So I've just seen the first piece of Africa.
Good Africa with custard.
This is madness.
I am so buzzed.
The sun's just about to come up.
I nearly stayed in bed this morning as well.
You know when you're just so cosy, you don't want to get up,
but you never regret getting up for a sunrise.
So there you go.
That's your challenge for this week.
Set an alarm, go watch the sunrise.
You won't regret it.
I'm feeling good today, man.
I'm feeling so excited.
Today is the day that Craig's Ferry gets in.
Oh my goodness me.
What a journey to get here.
I'm so glad that I finally made it.
I do wish Craig was here though.
So he could have greeted me with like, you know,
balloons, fireworks and stuff
because I'd made it here myself.
But that's okay.
I've been tracking his ferry all morning.
So excited for him to get in.
I hope he doesn't have a real big kerfuffle
with getting off the ferry.
And I hope he can get a SIM card straight away
and let me know,
Begs, I'm off the boat.
I'm coming for you.
But yeah, I've been loving it here.
I had a really early night yesterday.
I just ordered some room service and had a lovely bath.
Just, you know, taking in my surroundings and that.
Using what we paid for.
So I'm just gonna get up now.
I might have another bath.
It is my favourite thing to do.
And then get ready for Craig to come.
I've also got to go down to reception
because I don't know if Custard the bus
is gonna fit in the car park.
Come on, Craig, I'm waiting for you.
Waiting for you to come and, you know,
tell me how great I am,
how much of an independent woman I am
and that, you know, I don't need you to travel with.
Nah, maybe a little bit.
Maybe 50% I do.
Oh, who am I kidding, Craig?
Please never leave me again.
All right, team, that's me.
I'm all packed up, ready to get off the boat.
I think we're close to Tangier Med.
It's Morocco.
I've made it.
All right, team, finally getting off the boat.
After waiting at the dock for about two hours.
It's a nightmare.
The 48-hour boat was fine.
The water was fine.
The worst part was the ending.
We were just offshore for about an hour floating around
and then when the boat finally docked,
we stood in the corridor for about an hour
because they decided to take everybody's temperatures.
What a nightmare.
But heading back to Custard, finally.
There she is, my girl.
Good to be home.
It's official, lads.
Custard's just touched down in Africa.
I don't even know what side of the road I'm supposed to be on.
We're in Africa, baby!
I need a SIM card and I need some insurance for Custard.
Oh, no thanks.
All right, team, all sorted.
Let's go to pick up Captain B.
One Euro a litre.
Way cheaper than the UK.
Well, I've definitely landed on a new continent.
The traffic's crazy.
There's a lot of smiley faces.
Bonjour.
It's a good vibe.
Palm trees.
It feels very non-European, which is nice.
It's been so long since we've been outside of Europe.
So, yeah, I'm buzzing.
I'm so buzzing to be here.
There's the Hilton.
I'm here.
I'm coming for you, babes.
I'm just around the corner.
I think he's here.
If you can just see this, I think he's actually...
Yeah, so I'm the blue and obviously that one's Craig.
Is he outside?
All right, play it cool.
It's only been two days.
It's felt like a lot longer.
But I better go and help him park the bus.
Craig's home.
Yeah, that's perfect.
Yeah!
Yes, I am now.
What are you like?
No, no, leave me ever again.
Oh, goodness.
So good to see you all right.
Welcome, thanks.
It's only been two days.
It feels like a week.
My whole life has been a lifetime.
That's great.
Oh, so do you.
You OK?
So this is where you've been living it up as a babes.
Welcome.
You're literally sat by the gate and still missed a flight.
Back together again.
Dream team.
Never leaving each other's sides, right?
Right?
Right, yeah.
It was like super uncomfortable the whole time.
I was like trying to be brave and like use humour to sort of get through it.
But I don't know.
I kind of just felt like I've taken one step forward and two steps back.
But remember, you did it without tablets, on your own, and you took...
Well, you were supposed to take two flights.
You took one flight and a train, which is probably even harder because I had to navigate that.
I know, and that's fine, you know.
I was just going to say I'm not stupid.
I am stupid.
But it's so easy to just, you know, book a train and get on it.
But my anxiety was just through the roof.
And I feel like I would never want to do it again on my own, you know.
I don't know.
Yeah, it's a real tough one and I thought I was going to be great and it was all going to be fine.
And, you know, even without missing the plane, I was still really uncomfortable.
But remember, you did it.
So don't write yourself off because you did it.
Oh, I know.
So, lads, let the Morocco adventures commence.
Let's go and explore the country.
Next time on Kingin' It.
Welcome to Morocco.
You can't really see me, but this is really relaxing.
This is a bit of a problem when I travel with Amy.
Anywhere we go, Amy gets scammed.
Yeah, what is that noise though?
This is a brand new one.
This is Kester's one.
We ended up getting taken down a lane and they took all of our money.
