The Ouirika valley


These views reminds me of a verse in the bible. 'this earth is the Lord's and everything therein'. This is a beautiful earth of which Morroco is a part and Morroco is beautiful. One only need to go less than half an hour outside Marrakech to the Ouirika valley to experience the beauty. So by this time we've forgotten about the disappointment we felt when we first saw Casablanca. The Berbers are pretty ingenious, they set up roadside tajine stalls to serve to tourists. You can sit on plastic chairs or on cushions and rugs. Some restaurants have cushions and rugs where you just plop down on and eat. We like to order fresh squeeze orange juice. Here they cost more. Instead of saying 'coke' I'd like to say 'coca cola please'. It's just to reiterate the American symbol....coca cola!
