... that was my cue to say that I was not well. There was no way that I was going anywhere in a car with anyone. We had a nice meal though at the street markets in the square lots of meat and salads and I had like a dumpling with chicken and pastry and sweet spices on it really really nice. We said our goodnights and he asked if we would like to meet up again tomorrow we have said yes but we have different plans now as Mohammad is going to cook us a meal in the Riad.<br>

... a pic and Ian did not want the snake around his neck. He was demanding that we go to the bank and get some money and being really nasty so in the end I just dumped the 2d in his had and grabbed Ian and walked off. <br><br>We ended up having a walk around and going to the restaurant that we had seen in the day it was an oasis of calm after the street sellers. Ian had tajine of lamb and I had chicken we both had 3 courses and it cost us about 13 pounds and the food was lovely.<br>

... some time!]<br><br>Back to Bahia Palace &#8211; it was incredible. The ceilings were painted, gilded, and inlaid with the most intricate woodworking I had ever seen; the pathways, floors, and many walls contained gorgeous, hand-painted mosaic work; and the doors, window boxes, and other room trimmings all consisted of hand-painted and carved woods. <br><br>The vizier was a busy guy &#8211; we toured the opulently ornamented harem, which once ...

... on this beautiful, HOT (about 90 degrees, but no humidity), clear, sunny day. We spotted a tourist office and popped in for a better map &#8211; and at that point, I was wise enough to ask the cost of a taxi from Ville Nouvelle to Medina, the Old City &#8211; about a 30-minute walk away. No more than ten dirhams, we were told (exchange rate is roughly 7.5 dirhams to one US dollar). (Back to last night&#8217;s cab ride, where we negotiated down from 50 to 35 ...

... And oh my, we had the best balcony seats in the house as the sun turned the scene to a rosy glow and the square came alive w/ smokey food stalls, snake charmers, jugglers, magicians, et al as darkness descended.<br><br>All in all, a most magical night to top off my fantastic adventures in Morocco.<br><br>

Sunset camel ride does not finish until there is a sunrise camel ride after that :)<br>We got up around 6am to get out of the desert before the sun comes out. The camel ride was fantastic. We got to the Merzouga around 8am for our breakfast. <br>The van dropped us out at Rissani where the Chilean couple I was with and I took the long long bus to Fez. The bus ride is not the best way of traveling in ...

... there was a television advertisement frequenting the TV where a moustached french guy in a costume floats a hot air balloon over a village and throws a tub of Yoplait yoghurt to a young lady whilst saying Bon Jour! Then he says Yoplait, it's French for Yum! Ever since then i have wanted to fly in a hot air balloon and what better occasion to do so than for Nadine's alcohol-free, Ramadan Holy month, 39th birthday in Morocco. Nadine woke in the dark ...

... the game is a friendly one. Each encounter on it own is tiny, and is tricky to convey in text. But when it happens all day, every day, the impression is astounding. We thought we would visit four or five places in Morocco, but now I have no inclination to leave Marrakech at all. Consider where else you could have these things happen to you inside 48 hours of being in a new city. Marrakech is not so much about sights as about senses: the ...
