Fez

Had a lovely sleep and awoke to a feast of breads, jams, and fresh
olives. Soon after breakfast our guide for the day arrived. Because it was the
Sabbith (Friday), the shops closed at noon. This made navigating the
medina much easier. Narrow streets or foot paths crisscross the
medina. There are over 900 walkways (streets) in the medina.

While we had lunch our guide quickly ate and went to prayers. After
lunch we got a white Mercedes to transport us around Fez and to the
ramparts to view the city.

Although our guide spoke very good English, I think he was unhappy
that we did not buy at the shops he showed us. The shops included rug
dealers, tannery, and ceramics. Today he worked for just his wages
without commissions.

Enjoyed lamb tajine for our evening meal. Delicious!
