Oh no there are tourists Everywhere!!!

Lovely train stations,including a spectacular new station at Marrakesh which looks like a work of art, comfortable train (we went first class, about A$25 ea) for about 5 hours.

Marrakesh is much more frantic than the sedate cities of Rabat and Sale which we have become accustomed to, and so many tourists! But everyone is very friendly even when trying to get you to buy something!

The Riad (our traditional hotel) is stunningly beautiful and every detail is handcrafted down to the intricately painted ceiling in our bedroom. Breakfast was 3 different type of pancakes, pastries,fresh juice, fruit salad and yogurt. Yummy! If you want to have a look go to::www.riadbahiasalam.com

Today we are hitting the souks for some serious shopping! I am thinking of shipping a container back to our storage unit in Australia stuffed with gorgeous rugs, lamps, carved furniture and ornate knobs and knockers!:)

The weather here is hot, 28 degrees which is unseasonably warm for the time of year, but better than cold and wet for walking around.

Got to go the souk is calling....
