Last Night in Marrakech

Our last evening in Marrakech was the stuff dreams are made of. Fatima and Aisha spent all day cooking us up the most scrumptious feast. When we returned home from our day out, they were laying down rugs and pillows in the middle of the riad while Abdel was lighting candles and setting up the film projector. We got dressed in our caftans, looking forward to a quiet evening in. After dinner, we all cozied up and snuggled on the rugs while Abdel served us ice cream, making us feel like little kids at a slumber party. We watched La Dolce Vita projected on the riad wall until we eventually fell asleep under the stars. We could have stayed like that forever. Candice captured Mary wishing on a star and can only imagine it was something along those lines. It was such a magical night, one that's going down in the books. Now you understand the tears that fell upon leaving...
