... view over the city and medina area. It was funny to see the old buildings with so many satellite dishes on top. Next stop was a ceramic factory where we had a guide explaining all the stages. I really enjoyed seeing the workers (mainly women) painting the ceramics in beautiful designs just by hand without using any patterns. I bought some ceramic pieces (after seeing them being made I couldn't resist even though I'm sure I could have bought ...
Fes, Morocco leone_and_mike... streets, home to around 800,000 people, 83,000 stores and countless bakeries, mosques and hammams. It is said that if a stranger enters Fes' medina alone, it will take at least four days to find their way out. Our guide was $25.00 Canadian dollars for three hours, and well worth every penny. An older gentleman who previously lived in the Medina, he took us on a tour of all of the best sites that the Medina had to offer, while deftly ...
Fes, Morocco dangabesisaak... is the modern Moroccan way to smoke what they call shisha. Shisha is a smooth, pleasant tasting and smelling, flavoured, natural tobacco that they put in a cone piece on top of the hookah. Next they cover that with foil and place hot coals on top of the foil using tongs. They all take turns sucking down the smoke through a hose. We are invited into the ritual. Aziz favours the apple flavoured tobacco. We cover our faces with our turbans as one of the guys pierces a a ...
M'Hamid, Morocco inoursuitcase... conditions of people heating up the hammam waters.The fellow then took us to the obligatory craft store and when we decided we had enough, using the excuse that we were tired and hungry, he told us he would leave us at a nice restaurant just around the corner. Since we didn't know the city and he told us he would leave us on a main street any minute now, we had no choice but to follow him to the restaurant. Which turned out to be another luxurious place in a narrow ...

Fes, Morocco mig.qwerty... down. As Michael and began to study the Arabic phrases in the back of our lonely planet book, those around us listened in and shyly began asking us questions in French. When we asked for help with Arabic, we found ourselves learning more words than we could possibly keep strait, and before we knew it, we could count to 10, say excuse me, thank you, no thank you, shame on you, help, good night and good morning. That evening in Casablanca we met our group and settled in for a ...
Fes, Morocco fearcuairt... local- colloquialism to sum up events (& those to come...), we arrived into Old Fes around... 9 or 10P! We were dropped off in the RCIF,
what seemed like a huge, deserted parking lot and entrance way into the
walled city. No shops were open and our only companions in the night
roam were men, shadows and cats.

... perfect place 4 me to be based). To cut a long story short, I ended up going clubbing that night with a very friendly Moroccan dude named Omar. We first went to the new city, as there is no alcohol sold legally in or around the Medina, and went straight to a pub. Drinks were a little pricey, and it was a bit of a sausage fest (ie only one woman and about 20 men), but quite nice nonetheless. We then headed to the club, which sold perhaps ...
