A stroll through Essaouira medina

A couple weekends back, we headed a few hours south to seaside Essaouira.  We were blessed with perfectly breathless weather, in a town where the wind blows constantly.

We braved the local old-town medina, but wiser this time with the accompaniment of a seasoned guide, Mohammed.  (Quite possibly the 57th Mohammed I've met in 8 months)

For any artist, this place is a feast of colors, (but we'll talk less about the "aroma's").

Couldn't help but fall in love with these Moroccan doors:

Light's on but nobody's home


Someone lost their feather-duster




I came upon this lady, drawing her water from the communal water source:



Dentist....really?


"Enough photo's already, Mom!"

More about our trip to Essaouira tomorrow....
