We're home. It was a fabulous trip, and it far exceeded our expectations. Morocco is a country of great contrasts in geography, and incredibly rich in history and culture. I'm just beginning to sort through the 1500 photos I took over two weeks time. Granted many are duplicates, and many are easily tossed, but it's going to take awhile to pare them down to a reasonable number to keep and print. I aim for about 100-150, although I'll keep more than that for memories sake.
I thought I might use Mary-Lou's meme, Take Three Thursday, to share a few isolated photos over the next few weeks. When I was growing up, one of my favorite books was The Wheel on the School. When I read that storks were frequently seen in Morocco, I was hoping to see one. It didn't take long. Our very first day in Rabat we visited the Chellah Kasbah, and there they were.
It rained most of the day in Rabat, but it didn't diminish our enjoyment. It made for pretty dull looking skies in the photos, however.
