On our last full day of this trip to Marrakech, we walked to places in the Medina that we had not visited. We saw more earthquake damage. We visited a leather shop overlooking the tannery. We saw mothers walking with their daughters, and so many people greeting us and welcoming us. We visited the Photography Musée with photos exhibited from the late 1800’s to 1950. It was interesting to see the changes in clothing, with most men now wearing western attire, and most women wearing djellabas and hijabs. We had a delicious lunch at Nomad in the souks. Visiting Marrakech a second time after 16 years has been a fascinating experience. We have felt safe and welcome. When visiting places so unlike our daily life, we are reminded of our humanity. We are all created equal, just living in very different circumstances.
