Just hanging around Marrakesh.

So far I absolutely love the city of Marrakesh. With its desert red-brown walls, chaotic traffic, mazes of street vendors and souqs peddling everything from carpets to fresh tajines and kabobs... the smell of diesel exhaust... the honking.. the snake charmers... and of course the reliable call to prayer echoing through the city 5 times a day. This city just has a warm and magical feel to it. Everyone I've met has been extremely nice and welcoming. Even the police who regularly pull people over to do random searches on the motor ways seemed to be more interested in just talking with us and making sure we were headed in the right direction and that we were enjoying their country...
