After a small delay of 8 hours at the airport - due to increased security arrangements provided by the government of Morocco in order to guarantee a safe passage for the foorapes - our friends landed at the city of Marrakech. The extra security, however, proved to be completely unnecessary, since our friends were welcomed by snake charmers and festivities at one of the greatest squares in this royal city. Local cooks fired up their grills, poured out their vintage coke's from the extremely fruitfull year of 1981, and just couldn't resist to hug them upon arrival.




Unfortunately, the Moroccan souk's proved to be quite dangerous for a foorape. Disregarding the remarkable physical features of this mamal's brain, his sensory capabilities are completely outmatched by the un-foorapical anti-foorsefield that resonates throughout the entire touristic sector of Morocco. For the foorape is a social animal, and most foorape/human interactions at places such as the 'souk's' or such as the 'wonderfull panoramic picture sites', are infused with a commercial spirit. Money that is spent on other stuff than fun, beer or ladies serves no purpose whatsoever in the foorape cosmology. Archaelogical findings have shown that ancient foorape societies explicitly forbade words such as 'euro' or 'dirham'. The only exception being bartenders - who probably served as priests or holy-men. The first picture below shows foorape S-man entring a Souk without any suspicion whatsoever.

The sensory overload kicked in shortly after entering the Souk's. Below, you see some artwork, inspired on the accounts of S-man, Z-man and A-man, who described the psychadelic experience of disorientation that infused their foorape bodies in detail. Our friends barely managed to find the exit.


In a weakened state of mind, the foorapes felt an 'obligation' (the third taboo in foorape language) to accompany the rest of their human/tourist-travel companions. Below, you may observe A-man who puts a rock down to honour the holy god Foor (see post 'the foorapes DO Madrid'), in a prayer to help him through his ordeal.

Shortly after that, the foorapes passed the 'Gate of the Sahara' ...

and entered into it ...

There was something strange about this place. Weakened as our friends might be, they experienced a deep sensation of belonging, of comming home. Two forces struggled for dominance over the foorapes; a pavlovian imprinted 'tourist-mode' which had been branded onto our friends during their visits to the commercial souk's on the one hand, and a foorse emanating from this blisfull place, on the other ...

Our friends remained strong as long as they could ...

Exhaustion was allmost complete ...

Only one sentence pounding in their heads ...

NO ...MORE ... TOURIST MODE .............. .....
