Surprise......we went to Marrakesh

First evening in the Cafe Marrakesh Restaurant in the main square

Surprised !!

Roof terrace of our Riad Altair Hotel in the Medina (old city)

Very LOUD 05:30 wake up call from the local Mosque

Very pleasant interior of our hotel

Bit too cold to plunge

A large Mosque - we were lucky to get into the terrace

Wonderful stone work

The main wall of the Medina, many "gates" along it

View of the Atlas mountains from the roof of the museum

Garden Majorelle

Very peaceful place

Old ruined Palace

The trees have lots of oranges on them

Many many storks

View of the palace grounds
