"You stay here one month, you speak Arabic perfect."

An herb man in the Seffarine square of Fes: he had mint, absinthe, lemon verbena...

Goat skins drying on the rooftops of the Fes Tannery District. They are yellow from soaking in a saffron dye for 6 days. After drying they'll be cut and sewn into super-soft shoes, purses, jackets, etc. Wow.

Fes leather shoes--- the man said (quite literally) "We have every size, every color. Go on, pick what you like."
The panoramic view of Fes. Hassan and Lahcen asked us "Where is your riad?" Hell if I know, boys.
Baby sheep!! Wee lambies!! Twins!! You can barely see, but these lambs are brand new: there are umbilical cords!!
