Young fella selling fresh olives and pickled things in a local market. They love their olives around the Mediterranean.
Some of the many carpets beings sold at the Habous market.
The Hassan II mosque is the second largest religious monument in the world - just behind the one in Mecca. It is one of the few touristic sights in Casa.
Some arches at the mosque.
A rather large door of the mosque. I'm the little guy in grey and blue by the potted plant.

I love potted plants.
Casablanca is one of the biggest cities in Morocco. It is to be quite frank, a city, nothing special about it. As all cities it offers its western comforts, McDonalds and other fast food chains can be found.
Morocco property is famous thanks to this city.
It is a business centre, and reflects appropriately the living standards of Moroccans, the out skirts of the city is lined with make shift shacks, plastic bags and other rubbish surrounds the squats, as does the scent of death.
All in all Casablanca was an experience, I don't think I will return. It's a shame because the surrounding areas are quite special, beaches that line the coast are very clean, warm water and great surf, up to 5m in winter.
Keep your wits when traveling in Casablanca, I would not recommend single girls traveling alone, or in groups of girls, it is also advised to dress appropriately and wear a wedding band.
