Resist the temptation to pick them—the thorns are vicious!

We buy them peeled...

In the fall, we bought some arbutus berries from kids selling them on the roadside on the way out of Marrakech. A bit bland! I don’t have any photos! Too bad!

We should really enjoy it, both literally and figuratively!

In June we saw pomegranates still green on the trees; by autumn they’ll have ripened.

And the grapes, and the melon... and maybe the start of the oranges... Nowadays, we get all kinds of fruit all year round, and some come from Morocco...

Well, tell me all about it! We're already loving it! Five fruits and vegetables a day shouldn't be too hard! Thanks!

And the markets are a real feast for the eyes—mountains of fruits and vegetables, bunches of carrots, colors, and the... scents of spices... Perfect opportunities to bring back some amazing photos....

Last autumn, we bought some arbutus berries from kids selling them by the roadside on the way out of Marrakech. A bit bland! I don’t have any photos! Too bad!

When they’re ripe, they’re sweeter! And they’re sold in little hand-woven baskets! I really like them!

Can't wait for the next trip! But when????

I got the chance to try them—they taste like Tagada strawberries but are less sweet!

We didn’t see anything even remotely resembling "tagada" strawberries. Oh well, too bad for us!

It's simply a matter of season—come autumn, you don’t even need to look; kids offer them along the roads.

I think we're going to make so many discoveries, and it's just amazing—simply amazing. Thanks for preparing us like this. We'll spend less time missing those little things that might have slipped by us otherwise.

That's the whole point of travel forums!

We left on September 28th. Back in France, it's already autumn, so we're really happy to be flying off to Morocco! We love this road-trip plan with a rental car! A big thank you for all your great tips!

For our part, we're leaving on 10/21—it's coming up soon. Have a great trip, and see you very soon to swap our discoveries!

This year, we tried pomegranate juice, served for dessert with little Moroccan pastries—it was super good and such a nice change from the usual cinnamon oranges!

It's an excellent drink—enjoy it without moderation! In Bangkok’s Chinatown, many street vendors sell it. It’s delicious!

Here’s how to make pomegranate juice... You’re right—it’s delicious!
