Dear Lion.
It was rough. I am not gonna lie to you. Around 3 p.m
Pacific time I picked Little Adam from school.
We stopped and we got some snacks here on Solano Avenue. And then we headed home.
Little Adam goes in first and comes back to me. "Mommy is crying." What happened I said.
"She says there is an
Earthquake in Morocco." So I go inside and ask her "Where? What city?"
She tells me "
Everywhere." I did not want to believe it. I left her crying and trying to reach her family
on the phone.
Asfi. I enter my bedroom and
I lock the door.
I turn on the computer. And There It Is
. EVERYWHERE. I keep looking and I see
Marrakesh. The Imperial Marrakesh.
Rough I tell you
Dear Lion. I started thinking about all those people in the
Medina. And of course I started thinking about
the
Koutoubia Mosque .... The Kasbah .... Ahmad Al Mansour. The Saadian.
Good God Dear Lion. Can you image the Imperial Marrakesh without
the Koutoubia?
