The colours and patterns of Islam

I visited Marrakech recently and was taken by the vibrant scents, colours and patterns of the city. It was a unique experience, and my first to an Islamic country. Apart from a healthy over-enthusiasm for tourist dirhams, can I just say that contrary to all the global hysteria, everybody we came across was nothing but lovely and welcoming?
