We started the day by driving through the three cities/valleys
 of Fes. Then we began exploring
the old Medina of Fes by foot, an extremely interesting and fascinating place.

We visited an operating Jewish Synagogue and talked with the Rabbi. Most of today was spent in the Souk of Fes, with an introductory tour by Meli & Haji.

This is an incredible maze of very over crowded alleys. In this maze, Meli lead us to the
 most beautiful Oasis-and antique shop where we could
rest and enjoy some mint tea. We peaked in on a small classroom of young children,
when they saw us they all broke out in song. While in the Souk, we also visited a
leather tannery/shop. Viewed the leather dyeing vats outside and the bags of sheered
wool inprocess and beautiful finished goods. After another delicious lunch we visited 
 pottery and mosaic work shop. We returned to to our same hotel at the end of the day.
