Fez, Morocco

We went to the Medina in Fez. It's kind of like a downtown but there's 9,000 streets and some are only 1 meter wide! It's huge and it was built in the 9th century so it's also OLD! These pictures are taken by my mom because I was focusing on not getting lost. The picture with the camel head was there because someone was selling camel meat and the head hangs there to prove that the meat is really camel meat. How you know if the meat is any good is if the tongue is sticking out then it's a sign that the meat is bad. The one picture is of guys in big round tub things of dye. They are men dying leather to make things out of leather. It smelled terrible and that's why I had the mint leaf to smell. It helped a little bit. Mint tea is crazy in Morocco. Everyone drinks mint tea... except for me. But you never know, I might try it. We were in a carpet store today and we all got mint tea but I didn't take one. My mom choked on a mint leaf and she was OK, it was kind of funny. All the signs are in Arabic writing and the other language spoken is French.
