Essaouira

We caught a three hour bus West to this small, walled town and got a usual man+trailer deliver us and our luggage to the riad we were staying. A bloody nice one at that! Four stories of pinks and purples in this a beautiful (if not slightly feminine) maintained building complete with lazy chairs, hammocks and our top floor suite (pic-above right). This cute little town reminded me, in areas of Fremantle and had the restaurants and hippie market shops to boot. We strolled around soaking up the salt air and handy wood crafts by day, enjoyed lemon chicken tagines at sunset and retreated to the royal purple riad by evening for tea in comfy chairs and hammocks. A very pleasant town indeed.
