On our way to the riad, he had to pick up his grandmothers--two Berber women covered in beautiful scarves of black, bright green and orange with henna on their hands and finger nails. When they got out of the car they grabbed our cheeks and blessed us by kissing our hands and then their own---truly an amazing cultural ...
