In Morocco, the colours dazzle.
Marketplaces, in particular, fire up my photoreceptors faster than I can manage to take photos.

Yet in Essaouira, a windswept town facing the Atlantic Ocean, I think I can spot a bias.

Head over to DeliciousBaby’s Photo Friday for more travel photos from around the world.
The Blue beach town! :)
Gorgeous. I love the spice pyramids of Morocco. I recently discovered a great Ras el Hanout blend from World Spice in Seattle and have been enjoying it quite a bit.
This country has been on my list a long time! It’s time. I must see. Great shots.
: )
Thank you all for stopping by! Yes, those spice pyramids always look so good – as do all the jars stuffed with olives and sliced oranges.
I hope to go back – with a better camera this time ;)
Love!
Thanks! Someone has since pointed out that my blog seems to follow the same bias…Perhaps that’s why I liked Essaouira so much ;)
Hi,
Thanks, very nice pictures. Essaouira is indeed a beautiful town (although a bit windy :) I just released a guest post on my Moroccan travels, including Essaouira: http://ow.ly/1sCNz
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Emiel. I’ve certainly heard a lot of people say that Essaouira is windy. I grew upon a hurricane-prone coast, though, so maybe that’s why I didn’t notice it so much!
