Here is an excellent post by a friend of mine, a current volunteer in Morocco, about a trip she took to Chris Stevens' town. Stevens was the ambassador to Libya who was recently killed in a terrorist attack and who also happened to be a Peace Corps Morocco volunteer some thirty-odd years ago.

I've been away for a solid month. It's going to take a while to catch up, so please bear with me. I'm having some issues with uploading photos, as you can see in the last one of these. Hopefully tomorrow or the next day I'll get some more photos and some anecdotes from the month up here.
Returning here after such a long trip, it feels like coming home. In other news, Krista and I now have two cats- Mina and Anton. We stole some sand from a construction site nearby for their litterbox.
