... them some money so the best thing to do is not even to engage in conversation with them but Ian keeps doing silly things like asking where things are then we cant get rid of the people they are following us around the streets it making me really on edge! In the end we did not see any of the sights we just made our way back to the square to see if they had a newspaper as Ian wants to see the football scores when all of a sudden someone grabbed hold of me ...

... goods fake bags etc and then we got to the big square I did not want to go until the night time but we could not miss it really. We got dragged straight away by a woman doing henna so I now have another henna tattoo.It only cost me 8 pound but she was dissapointed and I think she wanted more. <br><br>We then went and had some local mint tea and walked some more amazingly we did find our way back to our hotel and we went and sat on the terrace in the sun. Got ready after that ...

... at the lower end of the Medina, was built over a period of fourteen years by Morocco&#8217;s top artisans in the 1860s. The palace itself occupies more than eight hectares and contains 150 rooms. Through the front gates, we walked through gardens with banana trees and dripping palms before arriving at the building itself. [Side note: after about an hour in the spice markets, again running for our lives in the wake of busy mopeds and ...

... more performers come out of the woodwork. There were strolling astrologers, healers, and cross-dressing belly dancers. And storytellers recite tales of ancient times, alongside mobile dentists&#8217; booths that display teeth in jars! For all of this life and rich history, Unesco declared Djemaa El-Fna a &#8220;Masterpiece of World Heritage&#8221; in 2001.<br><br>As we began walking through this massive plaza, passing by a non-descript rug laid out on the ground ...

Met a fine fellow from Wales as a hopped off the bus in Marrakech (from Essouria). He was looking for an economical riad to stay and I knew just the place - the riad I'd dumped my rugs at just days prior.<br><br> After settling in, I invited him to tag along w/ me to grab a geocache at Menara Gardens. LOL ...

... a few of which had brought their drums and were playing a few tunes. And for tonight's evening delight, dinner in one of the many corners of the square, on a quiet balcony, overlooking the madness. I ordered vegetable couscous, and ...

... and it is loud! I am very amazed at all the beautiful riads and buidlings here. Morrocan architecture is amazing! So many streets are lined with orange trees or olive trees and heaps of palm trees around, especially in Gueliz, the newer area of Marrakech. Whats even more surprising is the prices of the villas and riads, which are quite cheap for the quality and luxuriousness and size of them. Whereever we have been inside a restaurant ...

... charitable, though. Several of the woman on the tour received various proposals from men working in the souqs - offers of Berber massages and rendezvous. Kristy was quite insulted that on one hit on her, though unwelcome solicitations can be unpleasant (but also amusing). I was told I had nice eyes by one young man; another one that Arlene purchased a bedspread from asked me to come back and stay with him. Hee. Because we all had Canadian ...
