Restaurant in Rabat with a wonderful singer and oud player. Thank you to Samira Idel, my friend!
High school students in Sale at the end of the school day with Ms Sprague. I wanted to talk to them, and sort of got in trouble because the group had a tight schedule this day.
Oranges just hanging in a tree at a teacher's preparation school in Rabat.
Veggie cart in Rabat. MMMM...
Country living in Morocco (central region).
Students presenting a report on Moroccan customs. They are wearing traditional clothing for this presentation.
Road into the Marrekesh souk - where shopping happens.
Canal from the Atlas mountains to the fields around Beni Mellal. The water is deep and swift and the sides of the canal are very steep, which sometimes causes drownings among the workers who live near the farms. We watched a woman with a child on her back, baking bread in an outdoor oven. There was also a lady getting buckets of water from the canal, who was very close to the edge. We were holding our breath.
A little traffic in Casablanca.
Henna for the "tourists". A good henna artist is skilled and works quickly. To get your money's worth make sure the henna is of good quality or it will fade very quickly.
View of the mountains from a Beni Mellal public school...so lovely!
Mounted guards outside of royal tombs in Rabat. They and their horses stand so still (for 6 hour shifts) that they sometimes look like statues.
Micky D's in Marrekesh.
Beautiful mosque in Marrekesh at twilight.
This high school girl let me take a close up photo of her design for her hijab, made by pins and folds in the scarf. Amazingly beautiful and intricate.
This is a photo taken by one of Fatimezzahra's students. It was sent as a thank you to one of my students who gave a pencil sketch in his greeting to the Moroccan students.
