November Picnic in Ifrane

I am sure that my family is saying something like, "This is Africa????" Not only is this Africa but this area is just a quarter mile from the centre of Ifrane and is near to the grounds of the King's palace.


The other thing my family is saying is, "Why are you taking photos of goats, sheep and cattle instead of those exquisite exotic animals?" The answer is that sheep and goats are everywhere! I still do not know what the grazing rights are but believe me, with every flock there is a shepherd.

This is my friend Asmov--who is the school librarian. I came to this area for a picnic with the Reimers and several Moroccan families. Azmov recently decided to wear the veil and is still getting used to being "so hot."

I saw this mom lie down and she gave birth while we were there....



These cattle came right up to my blanket. No fear. I did some hiking around the area. This is fall at its best!
