Don't ask me if pigs fly in Morocco :-)

Goats climbing up a tree

GOATS ON A TREE
Look at goats climbing up the tree near Essaouira. You can see it only in Morocco. Unforgettable. And please don't ask me if pigs fly in Morocoo :-).


THE RAMPARTS
Essaouira looked somewhat magic for me in 1998 when I came there. It was great experience to look at the ramparts, tall white houses, yellow details and blue doors. I could walk the narrow streets of Medina over and over again.
THE MEDINA
Essaouira had a nice little collection of beautiful, exotic for me places. None impressive to be honest but interesting. It's the walled white town with the ramparts and the blue Atlantic harbour. Add the streets of craftsmen working behind open doors.

Pros:"Goats on argan trees, tall white houses and blue doors"
Cons:"No public beach with usual facilities"
In A Nutshell:"Don't ask me if pigs fly in Morocoo :-)"

 Thanks for the good tips of Essaouira. I missed reading your usual hotel tips though. Were there no hotels worthy of mention (for price)?

 Essaouira did seem like an exotic destination--the white washed buildings, street bazaars and shrewd vendors. The tree climbing goats were amazing, too!!! I'd really like to see that!

 Do you know that there's still people who cannot tell between a donkey and a mule?
