Back in Morocco - Marrakesh medina again

I spent yesterday in the medina, wandering around taking photos and also writing down some detailed notes in case I need them for a future article. After a salad of smoked salmon and avocado and yoghurt, the heat drove me away, to cooler places. Here is a brief look at some of the colour.

Locals in the square

A basket seller

Forms of local transport

Orange juice stands in the main square

Lots of recently dyed hanks of wool were hanging over doorways - so much colour

Return to Morocco

Only a few more days and I'll be back on my way to Morocco. Time to catch up with some friends and hopefully take a side trip to southern Spain.

What am I looking forward to:
1. tagines
2. dried fruit
3. catching up with friends
4. weather that is not humid
5. a reliable train service
6. taking lots of photographs
7. chilling out and reading books
8. doing some writing

Hopefully I'll manage a few posts while I am there to show you what I am doing!
