One thing I've learned in Morocco...

From my time here in Morocco, I have learned a lot about Muslim and Moroccan culture. One thing that I learned, however, surprised me deeply. From our drives through the country side and our walks through the cities, I observed a lot about donkeys/mules and what they do. Their actions can be summed up in two different categories: working or doing nothing. And when I mean doing nothing ,I mean literally standing there, motionless where half the time you wonder if they are still alive. You might expect more from them, but from what I have learned, do not expect them to do much.

  1. This is a pretty random post, but I am glad that you learned something about donkeys.
    Hope you made it safely to Madrid!
