Morocco is our first African visit and our first trip to an Islamic country. We were impressed by the warmth, decency and honesty of Moroccans. We realize we are only kidding ourselves about any real communication with Moroccans outside of hotels and shops., A high point in our trip, however, was our guide, recommended by our hotel in Fez, who talked to us about the importance of Islam in his life, and the place of the mosque as an institution in every community. - Doug Nelson
