Yesterday a couple of friends and I went to Meknes. This was the first time I\u2019d ventured out of Ifrane without the help of any Moroccans (minus traveling here), so that was something to get used to. But we made it to Meknes and back without getting super lost, and I\u2019d say that equals a success. Some points about the trip:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Comparing the two cities that I\u2019ve been to thus far, I like the city of Fes better but the people of Meknes were nicer. Not that the people in Fes were mean, but Fes is a major city that tourists would go to while visiting Morocco (whereas Meknes may not be). Therefore if the people in Fes see that you\u2019re white\/foreign, then they\u2019re gonna do what they can to get you to buy their stuff. So I guess people in Fes were\u00a0pushier<\/em>\u00a0and more focused on trade. Whereas in Meknes, for example, people didn\u2019t seem to get upset if we didn\u2019t buy anything. And when we got \u2018lost\u2019 in the narrow alleyways of the old city (quotations because you actually never feel like you know where you\u2019re going), there were a couple different instances where people offered to show us out onto the main roads or asked where we were trying to go etc. And one sweet man guided us around the city. Generally you DON\u2019T want to take people up on this offer because (1) you\u2019re supposed to get \u2018official\u2019 tour guides, and (2) because they usually expect money at the end of the tour. I wouldn\u2019t mind giving someone 20 dirhams for a tour, however we were all trying to be really conscious of spending and honestly didn\u2019t have much more on us (and we still had to get back home). However after telling the man that we wouldn\u2019t be able to pay him anything for the tour, he still offered to lead us around anyway. I don\u2019t know, there was just a much more relaxed vibe in Meknes and it was nice.<\/li>\n
  2. If you were ever wondering if snake charmers were simply something one sees on tv and in movies \u2014 no. They are actually a thing. I saw three of them.<\/li>\n
  3. I had my first squat toilette experience. Yeah.<\/li>\n
  4. One thing I\u2019ve noticed when I get down out of the mountains is that bees are out! It\u2019s surprising to me, because while it\u2019s not nearly as cold in places like Fes and Meknes right now as it is in Ifrane, it\u2019s still chilly enough (in my opinion) for the bees to be in their hives.<\/li>\n
  5. I would really like to go back to Meknes, I think. We saw what\u2019s called the Imperial City, a couple mosques, the old medina, the souq, a random museum\u2026 but I feel like we didn\u2019t see what people to go to Meknes to see? Or maybe we did, I\u2019m not sure. I enjoyed it a lot, though, and would love to go back!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
