Sale' - Bab Lamrissa The Home of Barbary Pirates

[madPete]

While searching for events, I found this cool link to a visitors experience in Sale'', Morocco...

Excerpt:

Salé’s Bab Lamrissa stands at least thirty-five feet tall.  This monumental gate dates to the seventeenth-century Republic of Salé.  A city-state separate from Morocco, this small polity had been run by Corsairs, or pirates in Western parlance.  I gaped up and up, soaking in the building’s historical import.  I wondered how to fit the entire structure into a photo, without losing any of its sense of grandeur.

I dunno... as European descendants, wouldn't our role be slaves in this scenario?

You do know your history... There is a prison also, but you need to find the dog with the key to see it.

If someone wants to pay me to go to an event in Morocco, I'l go in chains.

If someone doesn't want to pay me, but will cover the cost of passage there - I'd love go!

I'm not into the whips and chains scene, but you only live once - I'd give it a try.
