Put out more Flags

November is the holiday season in Morocco. Nov 6 is a national holiday to commerate the "Green March" to reclaim the Western Sahara and Nov 18 is National Day. Of course this year Eid el Khebir is expected on Nov 16 and that is usually a 2 day public holidayso there is an abundance of closed banks etc. In recognition of these national holidays and in anticipation of a possible official visit from the King which, I understand, has been postponed on 3 occasions already the town and road from Agadir are decorated with flags at every crossroads and roundabout

Even the smalest market stalls put out hand flags and shops sprout flags and banners.
