Blue waves in the desert

Feet propery numbed for the climb ahead we walked the path up to the Spanish Mosque overlooking the city from the mountain side. It was wide and well trod, but at 2165 feet altitude we stopped often to marvel at the view back on the city. With the brown and green mountains surrounding the village of all blue and white walls it was like a huge blue wave rising out of the desert.

The mosque was not much to see. The Spanish built it but the locals prefer the ones in town so it was neve open. But the view and breeze form the top were spectacular.

We gratefully trekked down too lunch on the plaza. Sometimes a cold Coke is the best drink in the universe!
