I’m told there’s “Rick’s Café” somewhere in town, but we won’t be going there to mingle with throngs of tourists. Instead, we’ll sleep off our jet lag and be on the road in the morning for points less traveled to the north. But we'll see a few sights here first, including the enormous architectural masterpiece that holds 25,000 worshippers at once and has the tallest minaret in the world: the Mosque of Hassan II. Here's looking at you, Casablanca!

This big sprawling city looks nothing like the North African port town of Bogart and Bergman fame, and I wonder if rendering it in black and white with a soft focus might actually improve things a bit.
