she will have to pay to Ryanair 60 euros for each extra bag!
but she still cannot undertand why high heels have to be forbidden
but she doesn't give up and goes for a walk around the city
At the gardens of the Koutoubia she meets a man and woman reading a very big book,
and she decides introduce herself and to ask them what are they doing...
They are reading the Koran and praying because it is Ramadan.
Barbie runs away from the heat of Marrakech and goes to Rabat to visit her good old friends Braulio, Macario and Ollo.
He offers Barbie to drive her around and to show her the city
they visit the Kashba,
the cats of the Medina,
He makes her promise to have dinner with him and his family and helps her to call her friends to let them know she will be dinning out
Barbie doesn't understand why they are so wrapped-up with this heat...
Jamila is scared of what is about to happen because their parents want Jamil to marry Saghira
She's very confused, she needs time to think and wants to disappear in the crowds like Wally
On the intimacy of a femenine atmosphere she discovers what lies under the beautiful kaftans
They explain to her that a femme comme il faut should have her hair covered in public and wear discrete clothes
They explain to her that a femme comme il faut should have her hair covered in public and wear discrete clothes
Jamil is also back in Marrakech. They have a rendez-vous in the Majorelle garden.
They write their names in the bamboo trunks like all lovers use to do.
It's Barbies last day in Morocco and she does some shopping in the souk before meeting Jamil for their last dinner together
Barbie tries hard to fit and look like a respectable woman but she does with her own personal style...
Jamil takes her to the best restaurant of Marrakech and after dinner aks her to be his wife and to be with him for ever
Barbie can't accept the proposal. The following day in the airport she explains it to Jamil.
She's deeply in love with him, but she knows it won't work:
I'm sorry. but I cannot be the perfect muslim wife, I am used to be free and live my own way
Love means never having to say you're sorry, Barbie
Adieu, ma petite cherie!
From the window of the airplane, Barbie sees Marrakech getting smaller and smaller
She thinks sadly of her moroccan adventures and the magical moments spent with Jamil
Don't worry Barbie, we know you'll get through it!
True love in casablanca!
