Rabat welcome snack
Welcome snacks in a tagine were placed in our Riad room each day. Dates, raisins and almonds were a near sinful mixture after walking through the medina admiring the fragrances and snacks available. This simple pleasure may have done more to welcome us than any greeting at the door.

Entrance to medina and Riad
This was the near unmarked entrance to the tiny passegway leading to our Riad. When the petit taxi first dropped us off, it was with a leap of faith that we were in the right place. Later, I took this picture in case we needed to find our way back with the sign to the restaurant our only landmark as to the correct opening.
