On the road, Chefchaouen to Fes

Just a couple of shots taken while on the road from Chefchaouen to Fes, with stops at the Roman ruins at Volubulis and the former imperial city of Meknes. \

We stopped for coffee at a roadside restaurant where they kept a lot of peacocks. Suddenly two of the males had a disagreement, and this was the result.
