I’m joining Mary-Lou for her Take Three Thursday meme with three choices for #23: “A Heart,” all found on our trip to Morocco.
Tracy spotted this one on a tomb in the Fes Mellah (Jewish Quarter). Notice the French rather than Arabic. The French held a protectorate in Morocco from 1912-1955. They are responsible for building much of the modern parts of the main cities in Morocco, and French is still spoken by many Moroccans. The French influence is still felt throughout the country. In addition to the public schools, there are both French and American schools. These are private and lessons are taught in French or English, respectively. The two official languages in Morocco are Arabic and Berber. The Berbers represent nearly a third of Moroccans, but their language did not become one of Morocco’s official languages until 2016.
This was one of the walls in the restaurant in Fes where we stayed, and had one of the best meals on the tour—a sea bass tagine.
I took several photos of these two storks in their nest, and truthfully, didn’t notice that their heads formed a heart until I uploaded the photo.
I still have six more prompts for the Winter Scavenger Hunt to share, and will be back with those in the next day or two.
I like the hearts, clever catch with the storks – the love birds. The hearts so detailed in the building are true works of art. Thanks for participating in Take Three 🙂
These are also perfect for Heart in the WPSH.
I love the middle ones, but the storks are delightful!
Ditto Ella’s comment! Al the photos are beautiful and the prose, quite informative and interesting! Love the serendipity with the storks!
Looking forward to more photos!
Cheers~
Love the wall in the restaurant for the shape, structure and shadows/shading. Would be a great study for colored pencils. Really cool photo of the storks, curious if that is a common pose. I am so enjoying your photos!
