... tagine that was hidden in the back room. (Now the challenge is how the hell I'm going to this this thing home - it isn't small and it isn't particularly light either....)
Highlight - in the courtyard of the store, we found a craftsman working on decorating a plate. He was etching a design, and then coloring it with henna that he dispensed with a syringe. Shannon, Attia, and I were of course fascinated. To my delight, he suddenly put down the plate, ...
Day 6: The Hike to the Very Edge of the Oasis
True date: July 14, 2010

I doubt it's going to be as fascinating to hike through as my last couple of days, ...
Camel trek
... pictures of course to capture the moment!
I don't know how they know where they are in the desert, but they certainly know its every landscape.
More tea and hospitality (and a western toilet!!) met us at the end of our trek - wonderful! Nothing is rushed in Morocco or the desert so we "chatted" and drank tea on cushions in a desert camp tent before saying "shokran" (thankyou) and heading back to Tiraf.
We went to the local Tiraf ...
