On Tuesday of our trip, we were taken by out guide to a market day in a small town outside of Marrakech. Aside from the mud left by the recent rains (yes, it rains here!), it was a much better experience that the tourist-filled markets in Marrakech. There the vendors are very aggressive and barely take no for an answer. Here, all was peaceful and filled with the color (and smells) of the real thing.
You can buy anything here. On one edge was an abattoir and fresh meat was hanging from hooks. There were spices, dates, flour, sugar, live chickens, inverted baskets to have a shower in, ...everything.
