If you’ve been following me here, you will know that every country I visit, inspires a hat. This one is inspired by a door in a kasbah in Morocco.
“I did not see the things I expected to… and I saw what I never expected to see…”
We are on the road to Marrakech. You can almost hear everyone humming the famous Crosby, Still & Nash song to themselves …
Another wonderful riad, a grainery, and a souk where I watch but cannot photograph metalsmiths at work.
More kasbahs and ksars. One so close and yet so far away in Ouarzazate, where shenanigans play out on a stage set or two…
We depart the Todra Gorge and head toward a magnificent citadel, and yet another carpet loom…
I would have happily stayed in the Red Dunes for a few more days, but we have more camels and kasbahs to see… and Doug’s friend Said!
Moha, dressed in a blue caftan and white turban, will take us into the Erg Chebbi dunes, the tallest in Morocco.
Where I feed rare monkeys in the wild, and thwart a kidnapping by a white horse, on the way to a kasbah on the edge of the Sahara.
