MARRAKECH

BREAKFAST - every morning - John's houseboy - Rashid - jokingly nicknamed - boytoy - because he is so cute and sweet - would prepare breakfast in the patio: Mint tea and very freshly squeezed orange juice - coarse grain whole wheat bread - refined white bread (in North Africa bread is scared, and is treated with respect) - luscious warm pancakes - honey, orange marmalade and fig jam. Fortified by breakfast we slowly get ready to begin our day.
