My departure from Oklahoma heading to Morocco is set for this coming Saturday. I have countless things to do between now and then. Packing my bags and preparing in advance for this journey is a bit overwhelming. I have purchased several books to help guide me in my journey and to help me to know Morocco better. The first of these books has arrived in the mail and I already began reading it: "Morocco That Was" by Walter Harris, originally published in 1921. I am hoping it will give me insight into Morocco as it was prior to Western influence. I have made plans to visit the Museum of Moroccan Judaism as soon as I get to Morocco. I can't wait for the journey to begin.
