Meknes

Wednesday morning I caught the 30 minute train to Meknes…and this time I knew better than to take an unmarked “taxi” to my hotel. Fifty cents is a much better price than three dollars. :-)  My hotel in Meknes is hilarious – it’s called Hotel Majestic and it’s an old 1930’s building that has attempted to keep the vintage feel. It’s really funky, cheap, and in a good location right in the middle of town.

Wednesday afternoon I roamed around Meknes on foot and tried to find the Ville Imperiale. I got lost in the medina and didn’t find the palace remains, but it was a relief to not be hassled by guides at every turn.


On my way to the medina, I did run across this – that says “Pizza Hut” in Arabic, folks.
