The Medina
Take time to have a fabulous lunch at the "Hotel Restaurant French" You will find it at one of the corners of the Djemaa el Fna.
On the way to the High Atlas Mountains, on the outskirts of a small village, a market day was in full swing.
Put on your glad rags and have lunch at the La Mamounia
After a 3 year renovation, the legendary Hotel La Mamounia has reopened. It was completely redesigned by Jaques Garcia. We stayed at the Mamounia 25 years ago. I liked it better then. It had more charm. So much marble this time and so dark.
I kept falling off and on to the thick carpets. I did like the six handsome young men, dressed in all white flowing robes, opening doors for me every time I approached.
Next stop Paris
