Palms World and Todra Gorge

What a splendor - sleeping under palms surrounded by blooming, fragrant roses - bird concert in the morning and evening - and long walks through lovingly maintained vegetable gardens, also protected by strong palms. A mixture of strength, tranquility, security, and joyful anticipation of the months of harvest.

The excursion to Todra Gorge - of course early in the morning to enjoy the tranquility - a mixture of reverent awe of the rocks, the power of the water that has created this gorge over millennia, as well as the overflowing joy of colors of the fabrics. I always have the desire to touch colors, fabrics, to let the splendor slip through my hands - of course, occasionally negotiate as well - to buy gifts for friends back home...
