Some Creatures I Miss



When I think back to Marrakesh, I miss our animals terribly.
Here Mimi and Ollie take a nap.



Before Eid el Kabir (the big holiday) a ram goes for a ride in a cart.



A handsome donkey right by our house on derb Djedid




Camels on the beach at Essouria.



Ollie in awe of the shadow of Mr.B king of the roof cats.

Ohhh...that's a sweet photo of your cats. And that donkey has the nicest face, doesn't he/she?

Unknown said...

That baby camel is so sweet - though I can't say I care too much for the adults - always so haughty looking and people aren't kidding when they talk about camel-breath! :-)
That final pic of your cat is brilliant!

I didn't know you left Marrakech! If you're ever in DC I sure would love to meet you!

Aww gorgeous creatures. So sad to leave them behind. Your photos are lovely - the one from the previous post is particularly stunning.

Thanks for your thoughtful comment yesterday. :)

Such beautiful creatures,
I can understand you love them!
Are you going back to Marrakesh at a certain point?

Willow said...

Yes, I miss our kitty too. When MamaMia married she took our Angel with her. It was her cat, but, still...

so I enjoy my cats vicariously now.

Maria said...

Lovely photos! I understand why you are sad, I'd miss them too!
I love best the first picture (also for graphical reasons), and the camel family, and the last one with the shadow cat on the roof! Phantastic!

Awwww......I enjoyed seeing all these cute animals.

There was an adorable little dog at a resort I once stayed at, in Cuba. After we got home, we talked about little "Mamita" for months......she really tugged at the heart strings. I still think of her once in a while...

Tracy said...

Oh, Elizabeth...that last photo really tugs at my heartstrings...*SIGH*... No kitty possibility in NY? Happy Day, my friend ((HUGS))
