Marrakech was the first stop on our sister trip. We arrived early at Riad 72. Our driver called the Riad in advance and we were met by a man and his cart. It was the perfect beginning to our weeklong trip to Morocco. Riad 72 welcomed us with breakfast. It was a real treat after being on an airplane overnight. There was more food than we could possibly eat. The eggs, cheese bread, mint tea, coffee, fresh orange juice and raspberry jam were all standouts. The service was impeccable. Our room was very comfortable on the 2nd floor with a balcony right outside the door that overlooked the courtyard, lush with plants including a banana tree with bananas. We stayed here again for our last night in Morocco, a different room, more modern, with a surprise staircase to a rooftop with a view of the minaret in the background.
