Fés and all its greatness...

Katie and I are now exploring Fés with Rachel who we met at the youth hostel in Casablanca. Here are some pics from our outing, enjoy!
A beautiful promanade in Ville Nouville

The tanneries in the old city, it smelled terrible, the white stuff has pigion shit, really, not joking. It apparently softens the leather and "cleans" it.

Lost in the medina, again... but pretty fountain

Apprentice pottery painter, one of Moroccos handicrafts

Hand laying the mosaic tiles for a fountain similar to the one above, such detailed work!
