Derb Zerwl No 28 Marrakech, Morocco
We are now in Marrakech, where mopeds rule! Yesterday we left Dar Ahlam and drove to Ait Benhaddou, a cool Kasbah town on a hill where they film lots of movies. When we arrived, they were filming a scene from the "Prince of Persia". We got to see about twelve guys on horseback with flags who were galloping into the gates of the Kasbah. That was cool! We also met some girls from the town - they started talking to us. Khalid talked to them in Arabic and found out there names, and then he asked ...
Marrakech, Morocco zolabLast night the owners of the Riad Anayela invited some Moroccan friends and some snake charmers, musicians, and storytellers to come to the riad for dinner. It was really freaky! First, the snake charmers brought out a cobra which was big and black. He held it in his hands and it kept trying to bite him but he kept laughing and moving away. He also took out a puff adder which is a huge snake. He let me hold an asp around my neck and held its head so it would not bite me. He also put a cobra a...
Marrakech, Morocco zolabToday I made a list of all the crazy things that I saw people doing while riding mopeds in Marrakech: 1. Lots of people riding with no hands 2. Riding while talking on the cellphone and brushing hair with the other hand 3. Riding carrying tall pieces of glass on his lap with only one hand on the handlebars 4. Riding with a lady on the back holding a huge carpet rolled up and talking on the cellphone 5. Lots of people riding with five people, two adults and three kids, including one baby 6. Ri...

... we hadn’t wanted him. It
was getting dark by the time we got there and he took us to the wrong one.
Luckily the lady who answered showed us to the correct one. We were deep in the
narrow lanes of the medina and it was exciting but I was exhausted. We finally
got there and plopped our stuff down. The riad was very pretty, unassuming on
the outside and then with a little courtyard inside and rooms situated around
it. Lots of cushions, lounging areas and a ...
From the fun flats of Marrakech...we made our way to the High Atlas mountains for well...mountains of magnificent hiking and views.
Jebel Toubkal stands at 4200m above sea level and at that is the highest most point in northern Africa and also a bit of a mission! We made it up the mighty mountain in a few days and did some sleeping, sun burning and Scrabble in there as well. An absolutely incredible adventure!
Back down and all set to embark on a road trip to Fez!

I had a bee in my bonnet to try to purchase 3-4 small wrought-iron lamps, the kind you associate with Arabia. They look wonderful over an entry, a pool, etc. with a tee candle inside and a tassel hanging from the bottom. I wanted to hang small ones from the tree at home that overhangs our hot tub. This meant a visit to the narrow shops of the souk area. It’s also a guarantee “get ...
... e nós nem sequer pensamos no que
vemos em relação a higiene.
O souk (mercado) um autentico labirinto,
vielas que para mim ao principio eram dúbias, deixaram de o ser ao fim
de umas horas...são um povo simpático e afável. O roubo é pena capital.
As lutas de boxe em plena praça, os encantadores de serpentes, as tatuagens, todo um comercio.

... and interestin that out of maybe 85 photos, only 10 are of exhibits, the rest are walls an celings. 2) Ben Youseff Madrasa is an older building, a college of islamic studies 3) Al Qubba Ba'adiyn is an even older building, an old hydro-dynamic based water utilities building, that sits about 10 metres below street level (that's how old). Now pictures.
Marrakech, Morocco jaxxed... and drink was lit with small white lights, and the smells which arose from them were wonderful. There were snake charmers and henna artists and merchants selling freshly squeezed orange juice all keen for our custom. The sound of drums, bells and symbols filled the air and created such a lively upbeat atmosphere. We found a restaurant with a roof top seating area so we could take it all in. We ate our omelette and ...
