Rabat, Morocco

I spent a month in Morocco in 2008 and LOVED it.  Here are some of the photos I took while in Rabat.  I kept a really good travel journal of my time there, but I can't see to find it (d'oh!) When I do, I will upload parts -- to give the photos below context.

market scenes in Marrakech

Below are scenes from the fascinating market streets of Marrakech:

Just for kicks while sitting at a cafe, I took a picture every 15 seconds (for 3 minutes) of what I saw passing by my little outdoor siting area.  Such a great place for people watching!

roaming around the 'palmarie' near my kasbah in Marrakech

While in Marrakech, I stayed in a kasbah on the outskirts of town.  To get a little exercise, I'd sometimes wander around the natural 'palmarie' surrounding the kasbah.  Here's some shots I took of my wanderings.  Sorry, no journal entries to provide context to the pictures. 

(That's the kasbah I stayed at, from a distance)

Fes Cooking Class

While in Fes, I took a cooking class with some of my fellow travelers. We shopped for the food in the local market, prepared it in the hotel's kitchen, and then enjoyed it in the centuries old, picturesque dining hall.  Here are some photos:
