No official school visits, but we did visit the ILC placed at the Islamic Univeristy here in the capital. The director gave us a wonderful tour of the adjoining mosque.
It is friday and the midday friday session is the biggest one of the week, so we got some photos a little while before it started.I had never been in a mosque until the day before, and this was the first time I have been in one while "in session".
I guess because of american television's impact on me, I get this uneasy feeling someone is going to yell "INFIDELS" and they all come after us and thats the last you hear from me.What happens, I make eye contact with this one guy praying and I had the urge to offer my hand to shake, he shakes, jumps up, smiles,
and indicates we are to have our picture taken together. Turned my stereotype 100% around!
Reminder - we all all married, so we did some shopping with our wives in mind
