Durbin?
Durban is #15.
Plus bonus points for use of the word 'mosey'.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I don't believe they exist.
But they do... in a magical realm... and there's so many of them...

Casablanca?
Yes! Casablanca is the 7th most populous city in Africa.
Rounding out the top ten:
8 - Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire

My best friend is going to Morocco in two weeks to be the personal doctor for a rich people bike tour there.

Now, can you guess who my alter ego was?

Also, I am eating a chunk of Extreme Dark Chocolate with mocha java chips, purchased at Alcatraz, the proceeds from which, go to fund the parks.

Speaking of African cities, did you all know that Eritrea is an Art Deco wonderland?
I want to have a drink here.

I have a hard time thinking of Casablanca (and Alexandria) as real places. Weird.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Eritrea sounds marvellous. And in typical fashion I will forget everything except old and poor, which doesn't say all that much. I remember more about how the people look and dress than anything else. Maybe because the fruit of a lot of my father's travels was pictorial. I still have some national costumes burnt into my brain from 30 years ago. Oh, and folk tales. That was the other thing he brought back a lot. While shopping for friends in Nairobi I was stunned to see some of the very same books he'd bought us as kids. Surreal step back in time.
::sigh:: Calgon? Take me away? While walking and cleaning up my email inbox after doing a long-overdue errand, I smacked my head into an overhang while taking a corner. Luckily I didn't break the skin, and I just filled a prescription for the one painkiller that does anything. So mostly I feel inept. Real inept.
