... the medina to the Bahia Palace which had lots of cats roaming
around and was very unassuming from the outside (something that Moroccans
appear to love to do). But once inside it was an amazing building with
intricately carved wooden arches, beautiful ceramic tiles, cool breezy rooms
and sunny courtyards with lots of orange trees. Unfortunately lots of tour
groups too but you had to pick your way around them and try to block the sound
out. It was a beautiful place ...

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!

Did I say it was hot, like well north of 40? And it’s only noon…..

Our host at Dar Charkia was an English lady named Lisa. She produced a map and proceeded to give us an uninterrupted explanation that could be called Marrakesh 101. She and her nice husband, Michel ...

... brighter than the sky on a clear day. Unlike
the traditional Moroccan decoration that is so overwhelmingly detailed,
the Majorelle Garden was begun by a French artist and then taken over
by Yves Saint Laurent who confronts you in boldly painted pots, a
rainbow of rare plants and amongst other species – a striped bamboo,
that looks like it could only have been drawn up by a graphic designer.

... originates in Palestine. So here I am, and sometimes I do wonder if I stepped on board a Boeing 737 to get here, or was it really a time machine. Luckily, every few minutes you get almost run over by a motorcycle in those narrow winding streets, so the time machine is kind of out of the question, but then you walk a little further, take a side lane into some spooky neighbourhood and start to wonder again. There ...

On the way to Marrakech, we saw some monkey business going on. It was reminiscent of the bear scene in the Great Outdoors. We finally made our way to the grand market square where we saw dancers, jugglers, and our favorite the snake charmers. We were able to get up close and personal with these lovely cobras. They must have liked us ...

Our last day in Morocco and we are spending it in the Atlas Mountains to see the Berber villages. It is about an hour and a half drive way up into the mountains. There is snow at the very top but we are not going that far up. We stop in a small community of restaurants and stores and start our hike up the mountain. An eleven year old boy named Said (pronounced Sigh eed) approaches our guide and for three dirhams will be our guide to the ...
