2nd February, 2013 + Morocco

I hardly ever write on this blog - partly because I have no desire to share my private thoughts with the outer world. But I do look at it occasionally as I like to be reminded of what I've done and where I've been. So as this year I'll be doing some more travelling I've decided to re-acclimatise myself with my blog, starting now.

I'm well into my second year of the basketry course at the City Lit. It's very very hard for me as there's a lot of academic work... I nearly gave up but having decided not to it behoves me to work incredibly hard in order not to finish amid jeers.

I'm including a few photos from Morocco last year and will put photos from Andalucia and Sardinia on this year. We're starting in Jerez for the horse fair - Sasha's very keen and it's a good reason to go somewhere new.

So I don't have to write reams do I? I'll bung some photos on and post now.

Ait Ben Hadou:

There were occasions when Sash and I felt obliged to cover up:

 Mountain pass on Atlas mountains:

 Entrance to Dar Touyir - our hotel in Marrakesh:

The souk in Marrakesh:

A 'fence' made of thorns:

 Straw market:
