I have always wanted to go to Marrakech, so here I am.

On the way to the airport the rain followed us with vengeance ...so from this

to that!!! Sun and blue skies! By the way I loved the way this little boy was writing down something, most likely the homework for the next day

Arabic STOP sign, just to show you that if I wanted I could have driven in Marakkech...

the famous tagines, still thinking shall we lag one, some, a few back home

so very Moroccan, the mosaics, the arches, the fine detail

The egg-seller

exquisite mosaic full of bright colours

the city museum is seriously grand as architecture, the exposition was somehow small, but so beautiful

a Sahara old lady

looking after the enviromnet

a small and inviting café in the middle of the souk

the most delicious little oranges I have ever tasted, so sweet and fragrant

such colours...

This blue sits so well against the bamboo green

modern graffiti,

Ellie was inspired to make so many unusual photographs

perspective

this special blue again

and again in a different media

just look at the reflections of the palms in the water, how exotic is that?

a lady with a camera

the golden fish in the blue pool, colours like in a dream

Yve Saint Laurent's 1972 Christmas card for his friends

in the Love Gallery, love is definitely a miracle

so so marakkech-y, marakkech-ian?

the old Moroccan embroidery, which reminded me of some SHEVITZA from Bulgaria

in The Yve Saint Laurent's shop

Love inspired cushions,

that blue again

the colours of the desert

oh, some kids were quite bored looking at stuff their parents love, so they were playing hide and seek
just notice how she is looking at him, hope he knows how much she loves him...

the orange hair ladies

the café at the Majorelle gardens was so quaint and sold perfect coffee, a rare find in Morocco

yours truly

a selfie of two

this camel was a placid one, which couldn't be said for the others!!!

aah, look at those eye-lashes

the night market in Marakkech

another inviting looking café, probably selling only tea, but still good looking

the very kind souvenir seller

and this is the water-seller, who was practically jumping up and down in excitement

some of the streets in the souk

I love these colours, like jewels

the cat in the tombs

a detail

blue skies, palms and terracotta buildings-Marrakech!

this is such a pretty rose colour, coral...

a detail

shall I pose 1

shall I pose 2

shall I pose 3

shall I pose 4

shall I pose 5

I might as well snatch a shot

someone's modern home on top of this ancient building

I told you the street were narrow

I like doors

and door knocks

the carts were everywhere

an exotic shop

the kilims against these red walls are stunning

beautiful kilim! the only shop where we were not hustled to buy anything

amazing colours, warm and alive

my favourite kilim

this one is from the Sahara

the tagines are not ready for lunch yet

oh, my, the donkeys have parked so perfectly

grains at the market

giant strawberries

on a trip from school

one of the beautiful palaces

I <3 U

a detail

a strange but obviously necessary angle for the perfect photo

painted mosaics

a family on holiday

a detail

and another

almost Indian motifs

here he is again, the little boy with the hat

we did spent a few afternoons by the pool side in February!

and the famous mint tea
the herbalist

and his colourful and aromatic shop

a Moroccan town scene

colours

the lanterns

textures

a detail

playing with Mummy

the storks are here, still so don't wait for the spring in Europe yet!!!

behind the pottery

I love this site

glass lanterns, so sparkly

view of the Atlas mountains

holding his kid's front leg just outside the butcher's....................

sweeties at the Berber market

the lunch is being served

the jolly village musicians

and the tagine

I love this photo, in the mountains

coming back from school

look at them, waiting for patrons

the hotel musicians

the most beautiful henna
