Berber Wedding party

We arrived at the Berber party, totally famished. 3 colourful women came forward to greet us. It was impossible not to stare! They had very white skin and round doll like features.

There were a few sticks holding up a roof and under this were sitting all the women, including the 2 brides who were covered completely in red. It was a shame, not being able to communicate as the women didn't even understand french or arabic. (haha if they had understood these languages, sure we wud have been able to hold high level political talks with them with the 10 words we knew-V).

We werent allowed to take fotos of the women ( cos it wud steal their soul or something) and were hostile when they saw our cameras. The men were too happy to pose! When we left our cameras behind, the women opened up and dressed us in traditional Berber garb. The Berbers danced by the campfire all night. We joined them, but after few hours of the same dance, we headed to the tents, and slept very badly with the dogs howling, the mule braying and all the Berber music. Nb - never pitch your thin floored tent on sharp rocks!

Unlike the women ( who dont like to be photographed), the men wear fairly dull garb with a couple of star wars jedi type cloaks thrown in and the all important cool-buy baseball hats.
Hang on there's a berber woman!

Hare Ram..
