10. Tea time with the Berber Nomads in Bou Taghrar.

    Great shots! Morocco is soooooo photogenic. I can't wait to go back there to replace the hundreds of photos I lost in the worst of my many, many holiday photo disasters...

    I love the photo of Ait Ben Haddou at dawn. Did you actually spend the night there?

    HA, ha, Me too, I missed all my photos the first time around, but this time I have some interesting shots, and a lot from AIt Ben Haddou, that I will post later on. Yes, I slept there (There's a lot of hotels and there's always some movie being shot there)and the best moment of my trip was waking up early to be there for sunrise at 6.45 and stroll all over the place totally alone.
    Thanks for visiting!

      Oh, I envy you. Ait Ben Haddou in early-morning light must have been amazing. I look forward to seeing the other photos! Such a wonderful place.

      I'll have to remember to book a room at Ait Ben Haddou next time I go to Morocco. I had no idea you could spend the night there, although it makes a lot of sense.

      I'll have to add Telouet and Essaouira to my itinerary, as well. Both places look lovely.
