Great brekkie on terrace overlooking the old part of Fes.
Our guide Abdel arrives at 10.00 to take us on a walking tour through the famous Medina area of the city. Fes is something of an assault on the senses, especially the food market area. As Gail knows I have always had a problem with eating a whole fish as the eyes always seem to look accusingly at me. This time a sheep’s head seemed to give me the evil eye long after I headed off down one of the many narrow alleyways which make up the Medina.
Perhaps the most memorable experience from the Medina was a visit to the largest tannery in Africa where,in spite of much pushing for Gail to buy a leather jacket ( probably to be used once a year in WA ) we came away with 2 pairs of slippers and a wallet for $60.

Afternoon spent relaxing but Gail does have a hamman at the hotel and comes back suitably scrubbed and smooth.

Pleasant dinner at hotel then early to bed to prepare for taxi at 5,00 next morning,

Cheers
