Around town

Just a few more photos from the first few weeks here.

I’m not sure the right way to translate into English, but this is the School of Architecture that’s part of the same campus where my office is.
Roller-blading is popular. The smoother sidewalk in one of the king’s parks near Chellah had lots of families with skateboarders. I love these trees along the road that goes by the botanical garden.
I keep seeing this gentleman around town, the most beautiful posture and he looks like a horseman, but the clothes are in tatters.
Bougainvillea!
Love how folks plant wherever there’s a little soil, or the put pots or long planters all over the sidewalks.
Men are out early sweeping the sidewalks every day.
A city crew came through and pruned the palms. Keep meaning to ask about it. Not sure if it stimulates growth or cuts back water needs over the dry summer…but the palm fronds are the brooms used by the fellows who sweep in the mornings…
One of the quirky things I love. An optical illusion paver. I saw a whole sidewalk of it another day but I must be the only person who would love this…
Just a couple doors/ironworks. Doors are one of the things you find in postcards, so I’m not the only one who loves these…
