I loved seeing your photo - it brought back such vivid memories and sensations of the time - the small towns looked like abbeys filled with monks. The women had the white robe with one eye covered. I used to go to the baths and get heckled, it was hilarious, and annoying, but the female company was really brilliant. It's a very exciting culture. Persist with the Arabic, it can bring so many rewards. I used to make little notebooks of all the expressions, it's so different from standard Arabic - so you need to go on a Moroccan Arabic course!Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05896237241704316039noreply@blogger.com
