So far our ‘Round the World series has taken you on a visual journey of Outhouses and Cemeteries. This week we pay homage to our favorite four-legged pack animals, donkeys. If this subject interests you I highly recommend checking out Susan Orlean’s article, Morocco’s Extraordinary Donkeys, which appears in Smithsonian magazine and was the inspiration for this week’s ‘Round the World theme. You can read it for free online.
