A stroll through the Souk in Agadir

Did you see the British newspaper discussion about butcher's displaying their meats in their shop windows?  I thought those protests rather silly when I read about them a few weeks ago and remembered them when strolling through a souk on our trip to Morocco last week. Now there between all the beautifully displayed produce you truly see sights that are not for the squeamish and which remind you how sanitized our eating habits have become.
Aside from that I once again felt a little sorry for myself that I couldn't just take all those wonderful fruit,  vegetable and herbs home with me - but just look for yourself - and don't scroll all the way down if you are of a delicate disposition.....
