les photos de maroc

I finally got some time to upload some photos, so I thought I would fill you all in with a few. These are pics from the place djema al fnaa in marrakech...the huge open area with food vendors, snake charmers, story tellers, musicians, etc.



This is a pic from a cute little street shop in marrakech-there is a spice shop next to a fabric shopt:


This is in Essaouira- me playing an instrument-for genoua or something like this, some fun guys I met who showed me the local hangout spots and this is in abdelah's (the one on the right) shop where I had the most amazing tea ever, and a picture of the fish market:






These are sweet lanterns that are all over here:


The other day we had a cooking lesson and learned how to make a popular moroccan dish called tajine. It is really easy to make but has a little too much oil for my liking. Here is a pic of me and my friend Noor with the dish...tajines are basically some sort of meat with veggies, oil and lots of spices cooked over a flame in this special dish:
