Thank you! It sounds like Marrakech would be better, we'd like to get more of a sense of the country and not just the transience of a port. We've never managed a sit-by-the-beach vacation, I keep thinking we'll do one of those but then when it comes time to plan there's just too much to see and not enough time to see it. When we travel we are tourists (but the good kind, I hope). I say we like to see the thing, eat the thing, and buy the thing---every country/city has a thing that they are proud of, and we try to experience that. Great Wall, glaciers, German castles, local food, and a tshirt or Christmas ornament if we find one we like. I don't really know enough about Morocco to say exactly what we'd want to do there, we just like to spend a few days and wander around, usually on foot. I'm absolutely open to any suggestions!
