Nice page! I have wanted to go to Morocco for some time now. The storks standing watch on the gate was certainly unexpected. Sorry to hear merchants tried to shortchange you -- sounds like that is a routine method of thievery! It just happened to me in foreign-owned shop in Australia, and I think it was no accident!
Looking forward to visiting after the Paris meet this year. Thanks for the check your change tip. See you in Paris! Cheers, Ann.
Love to see Marrakesh soon. My friend is off there next month.
