PreTrip - A day to cruise the market
So our hotel was RIGHT across the street from a little park area, and the downtown market area. This was so cool to cruise around with Mustafa (25% of the middle eastern men are named Mustafa it would seem, I must have met 5 of them, 50% are named Mohammed and the rest are an assortment I can't pronounce very well) and check out cool funky arts and crafts in Marrakech.
Marrakech is known in Morocco (Maroc) as THE place for artisans and crafts people. Rugs, Shoes, Metal Goods, Leather Stuff, Jalabahs (hooded cloak worn by both men and women btw, looks very Star Wars Jedi Knight-ish) plus other more traditional touristy stuff, that is frankly all crap. Let's go see what we can find! No one will suspect I'm a rich American will they? Can I blend right in? Doubt it.
