So we got here on schedule last evening. Melanie got in just a short time after we did. It seemed to take forever for Mel's bags to be delivered. But as we waited we saw that the carousel sign had both of our flights on it. Pretty amazing.It's hard to make out on the sign above out heads but it's there. We got a taxi to the hotel, the price was about 100 Dirham. When we
checked in at the hotel we got a room upgrade from a two bedroom suite to "two bedroom" apartment. Now they call it a two bedroom but there is an "extra room" with a roll-away bed in it they would be happy to make up for us. The place is huge there are only 4 "rooms" on our floor. We have a wonderful balcony with a lovely view of the marina. All-in-all most excellent. The room is on the 31st floor of the hotel. The air conditioning in the room was set to "frigid" so we moved it up a bit to about 25C. It felt really cold in here when we arrived. Meg, Mel, and I went up to the lounge on the 52nd floor last night to get a bite to eat and have drink. The view from our balcony is just as nice as up there. Bonnie went to bed before we went up to the lounge and we got to bed about 12:30 AM this morning. The room is lovely, the hotel staff is very personable, the view is excellent, and we look forward to a wonderful day on Friday.
