Essaouira is a laid back place and has some of the coolest looking hippies I have ever seen. They don’t try, they just are.

Street Scenes: Essaouira Morocco
Moroccan blue is probably the most perfect blue. In Essaouira, an ancient port city located on the Atlantic coast, you’ll see it incorporated into the architecture. The medina is known for its whitewashed buildings and is the perfect backdrop for the warm hue.

When were you in Morocco Wendy? The contrasting colors look beautiful!
I miss Essaouira so much! I know we've only been back a few days, but I truly, truly, truly miss Morocco!
This is definitely a place I want to visit when I am based in Europe again...great shot.
What a beautiful shade of blue! It's very soothing, I bet that influences how laid-back the hippies are!
Excellent color idea.
The brain behind the white/blue color ?
Hi Wendy! Sorry for the absence, but I’ve been busy with my parents’ health; almost 180 years to care... ;)
What a lovely blue; but the Tunisian one isn't worse... ;))
