When we next go to Morocco - probably next spring
we'll certainly goto Essouira --we've been there every year for the past thirteen year and it's always a wonderful blue oasis after the warmth of Marrakesh.
The air is so clear and bright and the shadows so crisp.
Here in the Hotel Riad al Madina where we often stay
This is the corner of a friend's house in the old part of Marrakesh -such a typical chair!
And here the Jardin Majorelle with their reflecting palms and little hidden frogs...
and a bench to sit on in the dappled shade. I'm counting the days.

Like you say, the colours are vivid and bright in the sunlight. I go to Tennessee a lot and it is on the same latitude as north Africa so I know just what you mean about the light qualities.
I wonder what brought you to Marakesh in the first place?
Star: We lived for some years in Italy and loved it there.
For some reason Marrakesh reminded us of life in Florence in the 70's.
Morocco a wonderful meeting place between Africa+Europe - and so very beautiful.
Essouira is my favorite "city" in all of Morocco.
How wonderful to look forward to go to this nice place. I am going to plan a trip to Holland Yippee
