African merchant lady in Morocco (1000 words)

This picture is one of my best and it says so much.

US in Morocco

This was a fun time. The camles were like house pets to the locals. NOW I HAVE SET FOOT ON 5 OF THE WROLDS 7 CONTINENTS!!!

Spanish Bull Fighter

This is not what you think, just a show. There is a group of madadors and they massacre the small bulls after each fight, which there are 8 fights a day. Not impressive.

Madador Fighting Bull

We were not impressed that these madadors kill such small calves, these are not heroic men fighting 1,000 lb bulls like people think.

Bull cornered the madador


Our bus tour guide

He informed us a lot of the culture and ironically enough; he use to work for NATO. He is a very educated man and we spoke about the women wearing the burkas.

Morocco Streets at Port

You can feel very unsafe here; if you don't have a group and take precautions. The locals were telling me that things will get better for the US, not that Obama is in. I told him, I don't share the same opinion & walked away. There is a huge market to buy things here; especially silk rugs.
