Morocco


A few of my favourite shots from the Morocco tour..

Lovely set of shots Mark, we did plan to visit Morocco last year but with the unrest in some African countries we didn't go, so maybe this year we will go

Thanks Dave. We had no troubles at all, in fact it felt like probably the safest place on the whole tour.

Except for Marrakesh which was a little too intense for us to stay at ease.

Seeing the bombed restaurant in the market square was sad. Many people there fear that tourists will stay away because of it - I hope not though, they're already suffering from the financial problems in Greece and West Europe.

Let me know if you do go - we visited all the imperial cities, so should have some advice to offer if you want it?
