| Page Views: 7,010 Last Visit to Tetouan: February, 2003 | Tetouan, Morocco! by jamiesno - last update: Dec 18, 2004 |
|  | Quick Synopsis I got to Tetouan as a chaperon for a small group of high school students who where on an EF Tour. The tour started in Madrid, Spain continued through Andalucia and we done a day trip over to Tetouan.
Here is this picture is my first encounter with a Dromadary! These close ups are hilarious I think. You can tell it is a dromadary versus a camel by the number of humps on the back.
If you are familiar with Camel Cigarettes for example. The logo on the pack is actually a Dromadary!
The Dromadary has just one hump versus two on a camel.
I hope you enjoy the rest of my photos from Morocco! |
| | Thoughts on Tetouan! I spent a day in Tetouan and it was an eye opener to say the least. The arabic language barrier would have been insurmountable for me if I had been alone. I am told since that arabic is very hard to learn.
The streets where very narrow and lots of trade happening in the streets. The muslim characteristics were also a first for me making it much different.
The native dress was also very unique and you just felt like you stuck out like a sore thumb! If you were going to blend in here it would take some effort.

Jamie, your visit put a lot into a day and you did well to show us the interesting places and markets. Not sure if I would venture into the bargaining situation. Great work. | ezaguryk Fri Dec 24, 2004 19:29 UTC
