We made a trip to the garden souq today - which is like a flea market for plants and flowers. It was quite a cultural experience!
These are the plants of the vendor we bought from. There were 4 or 5 vendors out there with all their stuff layed out on the parking lot.
There were also 4 or 5 trucks out there full of rams for sale. The rams are slaughtered for sacrifices this week for Hajj. Hajj is the annual pilgrimage Muslims take to Mecca, which is required of every able-bodied Muslim once in their lifetime.
These are some friends on our compound that God sent us - The Reeves'. We have a great time with them and we enjoy having another Christian family to hang out with. They are from South Africa and have been a true blessing to our family already!
Our RAIN!! Can you see it??!!
