Dinner with friends & family




We went to the Arabian Night Restaurant. It was so much fun meeting all Nahid's extended family. At the restaurant there was even a replica of the leaning tower of Pisa. I am unsure what that has to due with the Arabian nights, but boy it was fun running up and down the 6 flights of stairs.

During the trip I had been learning Arabic. I had been getting better and better every day. There is always those times when learning a new language that you mix up words and have an embarrassing situation. We for me the two words that I mixed up were: Tomorrow = Bukra & Kiss = Boosney. So I tried to tell Nahid'd brother in law that I was leaving tomorrow, but instead told him that I was going to kiss him, right in front of his wife. Thankfully she laughed and understood I just had made a mistake.
