Ben's 1st week in a little town

About an hour north of Ouarzazate is my town. It has mountains behind it and a the town is built in a river valley. The river is dry most of the time. People in the town grow almonds, barley, figs. The women also weave rugs. Women work on a rug between 7AM and 2AM the next day for up to fifteen days. That's about 250+ hours. Most of rugs stay in the town because they dont make enough to sell them regularly. My family is really cool. They have satellite and good food. They have running water. There is a mother and father, a sister and brother. They are all friendly although I cant talk with them very much. The mother has a traditional Berber tattoo on her chin: a tradition that is dying out.
