Reasons I need to go to Marrakech?
1: To spend an afternoon people watching in the Djemaa el Fna square where local acrobats, story-tellers, water sellers, dancers, fortune tellers, snake charmers, and musicians lurk.
2: Because at night fall the Djemaa el Fna square turns into an open air restaurant full of candle lit exotic meal options.
3: To be inspired by the Moorish architecture.
4: To eat with my hands on a picnic in the desert.
5: Because the magical and mystical La Mamounia hotel was renovated this past fall and is an interior design masterpiece thanks to Jacques Garcia.
