This drew itself on my black plate, after I ate all the other slices...;)
My only artistic input was to move the tomato slices around a bit and to slide one seed into the nose position...;))

"when i was small, and christmas trees were tall,
we used to love while others used to play.
don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
some one else moved in from far away.
now we are tall, and christmas trees are small,
and you don't ask the time of day.
but you and i, our love will never die,
but guess we'll cry come first of may.
the apple tree that grew for you and me,
i watched the apples falling one by one.
and i recall the moment of them all,
the day i kissed your cheek and you were mine.
now we are tall, and christmas trees are small,
and you don't ask the time of day.
but you and i, our love will never die,
but guess we'll cry come first of may.
when i was small, and christmas trees were tall,
do do do do do do do do do...
don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
some one else moved in from far away."

Essaouira is a city in the western Moroccan economic region of Marrakech-Tensift-Al Haouz, on the Atlantic coast. Since the 16th century, the city has also been known by its Portuguese name of Mogador or Mogadore. The Berber name means the wall, a reference to the fortress walls that originally enclosed the city.
Essaouira has long been considered as one of the best anchorages of the Moroccan coast. The Carthaginian navigator Hanno visited in the 5th century BC and established the trading post of Arambys.
The Medina of Essaouira (formerly "Mogador") is a UNESCO World Heritage listed city, an example of a late 18th-century fortified town, as transferred to North Africa by European colonists. Major problems currently are deterioration of the extensive ramparts around the Medina; and widespread violation of laws against motorized vehicles (primarily mopeds) within the Medina.
The medina is home to many small arts and crafts businesses, notably cabinet making and 'thuya' wood-carving (using roots of the Tetraclinis tree), both of which have been practised in Essaouira for centuries.
The fishing harbour, suffering from the competition of Agadir and Safi remains rather small, although the catches (sardines, conger eels) are surprisingly abundant due to the coastal upwelling generated by the powerful trade winds and the Canaries Current. Essaouira remains one of the major fishing harbours of Morocco.
Essaouira is also renowned for its kitesurfing and windsurfing, with the powerful trade wind blowing almost constantly onto the protected, almost waveless, bay. Several world-class clubs rent top-notch material on a weekly basis. Parasols tend to be used on the beach as a protection against the wind and the blowing sand. Camel excursions are available on the beach and into the desert band in the interior.

I returned to Morocco on a short trip after seven years for a few days planned to be spent mainly in Marrakech and Essaouira - Morocco has remained as vibrant as I remembered and in some aspects is even more friendly to its foreign visitors.
Essaouira remains a gem on the western coast, with its marvelous old "Medina" quarter, picturesque harbor, busy small markets and narrow streets.
