Near the Royal Palace Gates in Fes, Morocco

On our first morning of our visit to Fes in Morocco we set off in our tour bus to visit a number of places around the city. Near the gates of the Royal Palace we met our guide for the day. He is the person on the left in the photo above, but I forget his name.

The morning was crisp and cool, being the middle of winter (mid December). I didn’t expect to see autumn leaves on the trees here; this wasn’t part of the image I had of this country. Now matter where we went I was constantly surprised by such things.
