In September of 2017 Lori and I flew to Lisbon for a month long trip to Portugal.
On day twenty of our trip, Lori joined a five-day birding class in Portugal.
At the same time I flew to Marrakesh, Morocco for several days and
then took an eight-hour taxi ride to Chefchaouen, the Blue City of Morocco.
​
This is truly a unique city. Most of the structures are painted in differing shades of blue.
Wandering through the walkways of the city was a delight.
​The town was founded in 1471 by the Moulay Ali Ben Rachid, a descendant of the Prophet Muhammad.
The original structure was a small fortress
​built to defend the area from attacks by the Portuguese.

This night-time image shows the artist at work inside his studio
​with many works displayed outside to draw potential customers up to this gallery.
