 A reference of a travel
@Security  It's generally good. But there are a pickpocket and a snatch everywhere.
AGuide    You must employ a formal spot guide. Act with a guide night and day. It's far better.
BWeather  It's winter force in the morning desert. Cope with on top of one another wear.
         (need gloves)
CMeal     Le tajine and Le couscous have weak taste.(have a salt)
         If you have bad condition, don't eat frsh vegetables.
DWater    Mineral water is the best except Japan.( 1,5liter 60yen at general store)
         If I imagine to have loose bowels, I want to use a mineral water when I wash out my mouth.
EPrices    A souvenir hasn't the price.They overcharge to Japanese.
         Sometime 10times as much as a price.
         Generally, start from 30%price, negotiate for 50%price or less.
