Thank you for the welcome Darienne I was so childishly pleased to be accepted as a member! I'd read the site for a while, but had hesitated to apply. Yes, it was a bit of a pain that he wouldn't stop, but to be honest, we'd managed to get a couple of cancellation seats on the bus, and most of the people there had paid full price. (I think it was attached to an hotel) So we didn't complain! So much to ask about Marrakesh food though. I thought I'd researched pretty well, but there were lots and lots of very unexpected (and delightful) surprises.
