Bedouin Parking Lot

Our Bedouin guide through the Sahara, Hassan, took us through the bazaar in Rissani. The market was outdoors and the overwhelming majority of vendors arrived with their goods by donkey. There was an area outside the bazaar where the vendors tied up all their donkeys. It was an open space with dozens and dozens of donkeys waiting in the hot desert sun. Hassan just laughed at the image, pointed and said, "Look! Bedouin parking lot!"
