We are in Marrakech. We flew out of Milan. On the way up to Milan airport in the train we had all kinds of weather. It rained heavily on the way from Florence, then we had blue sky. From Milano Centrale to the airport huge white clouds appeared and made a stunning backdrop to the graffiti beside the railway line.
Once at the airport there were black storm clouds and hail. The weather had a busy day.
This is my first visit to Marrakech. We arrived very early in the morning.
There was a cat at the airport, presumably waiting for its owner to arrive.
After checking into our lovely Riad Mena, we set off to explore the city. We were a bit concerned that we would not find our way around, but Abdel, from the Riad, took us to a central point which made it a bit easier to navigate the tangle of streets.
Here are some random shots of the first day.
A quiet street.
An electricians job must be a tough one.
I love Moschino too.
The streets were chaotic, with people, donkeys, horses and vehicles of all kinds. The weather was pleasantly warm, but that didn’t deter many people from wearing several layers of clothing, including the ever popular puffer jackets. It made me hot looking at them.
Out for more Marrakech fun tomorrow.
