Summing Up Casablanca
The trip to the beach was excellent, but that couldn’t be said for the weather! I’ve been to Morocco before, and it was just as non-threatening as Marrakesh was ten years ago.
One thing that I noticed, was that a lot of the young Moroccan women, don’t bother to cover their hair, as most women do in Muslim countries. Coupled with the vast numbers of newspapers on the streets, does this show that Morocco is joining the modern world? Incidentally, I did hear a report on BBC World, that said that Morocco was one of the most welcoming countries in the world.
Let’s hope it stays that way! Or possibly gets even better!
I remember last time in Marrakesh that we had been recommended a restaurant by one of C’s colleagues in her chambers. We asked the concierge of our five star hotel, how we could get to the restaurant and he said to take a taxi, as the restaurant was difficult to find. We then asked how we got a taxi to get home and he said, that if we felt up to it the best way was to walk, as Marrakesh was a safe city.
So after an amazing meal, we walked back to the hotel!
The only interaction we had on the walk, was when a guy courteously waved us through, as he was in a hurry.
