Crowds of locals, crowds of tourists.

 One of the things I found most challenging about this trip was the clutter on the streets. The uneven cobblestones, the slippery steps worn away by thousands of years of foot traffic, people going about their daily business, tourists who were gazing about, tourists with selfie sticks, cats, donkeys, bikes, motorbikes, beggars, people wanting to sell you stuff, rubble, fog... the list goes on.
Street in Hvar (C)

Cobblestones in Split (C)

Mats at Market (M)

Argan leaves (M)

View from Sky Bar - the only place in Marrakech where we could buy alcohol 

Beach near Rabat (M)


Volley Ball takes up half the beach at Cascais (P) so all the sunbathers squished up together

AS if the cobblestones aren't enough - lets add some psychodelic patterns (Cascais, P)


Pena Palace at Sintra is here somewhere. (P)

Cobblestone square with street performers.

Donkeys with cowhides draped over them - they look like cows! Heading to the tanneries in the medina in Fes (M)

The cat variety was thin - but not undernourished. I guess its to stop them getting too hot. Rabat (M)

Who'll buy by nice watermelons?  (M)

Falls at Krka were heaving. Hard to get in and out of as the edges very muddy.

Hvar - with fort up top. Many rich and famous had their boats moored here.

Korcula. Another typical example of the restaurants putting their  tables on the footpaths/steps. Just one more thing to avoid.
