Marrakesh comes alive!

Marrakesh is quite a great place. Last night we saw the main square in the city come alive...from around 4pm traders arrived armed with stalls, stoves, fuel and food. Out of nothing, in only a couple of hours, emerged a great array of street shacks serving food to the assembled masses of Marrakesh. Not only that, but freshly squeezed orange juice is constantly available for a measly few Dirhams... After feeding and watering, we walked round this amazing square soaking up the atmosphere – families strolling, couples cavorting – dancers, actors, and storytellers... it’s a case of ‘choose your entertainment’. And this happens EVERY night...!
