Atlas Mountains

So, last week- -finally - mu mom came to visit! Finally! I could speak to someone on my native language, I have forgotten of how good it feels... Now she is back home again... 
We decided to take a trip to Marrakech and Atlas Mountains.  
I do like Marrakech, the colors, food, souk. Well, the visual side of the souk - it is amazing, but not the traders. They are far too aggressive, beyond belief! It can be so tiresome! Didn't take any photos of actual city. Remember the first time, about four years age, I was naively snapping on when random men started chasing me!!! Not  the most pleasant memories! It turned out that you have to pay for everything - everywhere you turned your lens to! 
However, got some great photos from Atlas Mountains (after initial shock of sleeping is freezing conditions - no heating in he houses!). The mountains and the scenery was amazing, I only hope I managed to capture some of it on my photos!
First - the cute but cold guest house in the mountains and its hand-painted ceiling.





My favorite photo of the entire trip.



Variety of textures!










 The ancient mountain mosque (sorry, forgotten the name), which is being restored by original methods.
