Essaouira

Finally got to make a weekend trip to Essaouira, a windy fishing-artist-town about three hours up the coast.  It is very windy and therefore a haven for windsurfers and kite boarders.  The sun and wind can really put a beat down on you, but the town is great for strolling and seafood eating!

Streets of the Medina


I love the mosque on an abandoned island in the distance...


Arty items from the Riyad...

One of our favorite meals so far: incredible roasted goat covered in delicate couscous and a cinnamon topping with a touch of powdered sugar in the middle. Sweet and Savory perfection yet again.
