Normally im posting positive attractions in Marrakech and Morocco. However one may give serious thought to remaining by the Atlantic ocean in peak summer where temperatures can be Celsius 15 degrees cooler than inland. This evening in Marrakech was scorching Celsius 47 degrees ( Fahrenheit 117). Last July I experienced one day in Marrakech before boarding my flight to Ireland the following morning. It was Celsius 40 and it took 4 days for me to regain my strength 💪 after landing in Ireland.

Moroccan capital city Rabat is 4 hours train drive from Marrakech costing Dihram 200 or Euro 20. Better value paying 1st class costing Dihram 300. This is a floating restaurant /ship on the waterfront. Very clean and safe city and costs similar to other Moroccan cities. There is a modern tram system easy to navigate.

Saturday at Asni souk/ farmer's market. I took the shared large 6 person taxi, costing EU 2 / Dihram 20. Taking 50 minutes winding through the High Atlas Mountains with magnificent wild scenery. This once weekly large market is off the main road where the taxi stops and best arrive on a reasonably dry day like yesterday as could be lots of mud in rainy conditions. As well as fruit and vegetables and all kinds of hardware, there is a livestock section selling cattle, sheep, goats, rabbits, turkeys, chicken, and much more. The people are the most friendly I have ever met even away into the hillside where I took a walk passing the local Berber Tribe homes, as adults and children will salute you but not seeking money. Next time I will wear translation earbuds. They speak Berber traditional language as they are the original people, but speak Arabic also.

Avenue Mohamed V, in centre of the capital city, and close to the Medina or Old Town. After 5 enjoyable days, even though going into North West Morocco one can expect some rain at times and today was Celsius 18.

Remember where possible bring cash as better exchange and do the exchange at Hotel Ali without charges, which is 2 minutes walking from this Post Bank, in heart of Medina and Jemaa El Fna Square. As ATM machines often empty or broken. The Post Bank in photo is government owned and does not have charges. Avoid afternoon and night withdrawal as long line of tourist and locals for what ever ATM actually works. There are 2 machines in the front 1 at each end and around the rear of the building another ATM. Exchange is between 10 and 10.8 Dihram to the Euro for cash.

Marrakech, Roxe cafe with my morning cafe latte and bottle of water, Dihram 15, or Euro/ US 1.48. I usually spend 3 months each winter in Morocco, and if you avoid the local tourist restaurants, one can enjoy food and beverages in locals favourite spots, for half the cost of around the corner.
