We all met in Casablanca. On our first official morning, J and I decided to visit the Hassan II mosque which is one of the biggest in the world and a highlight of Casa’s otherwise dingy offerings. We were encouraged to take a taxi but as the mosque’s location seemed relatively close (and were raring to test our African legs), we walked.
We took considerably more photos of Casablanca than we did of the mosque, which we didn’t expect. Also, I’d had only a night time assessment of the city before that morning and in describing it I was comparing it to Havana and Paris. J made so much fun of me that day – and for the next few days of our trip – as I couldn’t have been closer to wrong.
Serendipity for curious shutterbugs though, that outing.
