旅遊摩洛哥 - 卡薩布蘭卡 / Road to Morocco - Casablanca

Many people who arrive at the Casablanca airport are surprised by the unique architectural design of the building which is not anything like the one in the Bogart-Bergman movie. In fact, visitors will find geometric patterns and symmetry almost a constant theme in the layout and design of many homes and mosques throughout the country. And yet, this almost compulsive attention to organization and details is diametrically opposed to what one would find in the shops and narrow alleys that scatter and snake through the Medina (walled part of the city).

ps: I threw in a picture (bottom) of the Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris as a comparison.

Hari 兄:
多謝分享!
讓我呢個鄉下仔見識見識。
我是不敢去中東,非洲,和南美 及 Caribbean 的!


p.s. 題外話:
Hari 兄往摩洛哥旅遊期間,我寫了一篇網誌,有關加拿大法院裁定遣返,因為逃避被派往伊拉克參戰,而潛入加拿大居住的的美國兵哥。
想 Hari兄畀啲第一手資料,如今解決了未?

Fresh Designer: Glad to hear you like the pics. During the trip, I actually took some colourful photos of various objects with you (fresh designer of clothes?!) in mind.

Inner Space: The honour is mine.

Listening to the news, we might need to add India to your list :(

As to the US draft dodger (hope that's a politically correct term), I have not read anything on the newspaper. But then I was away on vacation and might have missed the news.
