Morocco Part 1-Pictures

Hello,


If you have read previous posts, you know that I spent some time in Morocco. I guess I should start off by saying that despite all the research I had done and all the people I had asked for advice, I was not prepared. Just a forewarning, this post is going to be extremely long because I went a little overboard with pictures and I included my journal, personal reflections, etc. Since that isn't interesting to everyone and it's going to take a while, I'm going to do that at a later point.
