first night in the ville nouvelle

the internet at my host parent's house is actually a sporadic signal i'm picking up from a neighbor, so most of my posts will probably be from ALIF during the week.

daylight savings starts today, which is good because it gets dark here around 7:30. the sunset tonight was absolutely beautiful, seen over the mosque outside our window, imam ali (the bells ring five times a day, the first one at 3:30 am...)




















tomorrow we'll probably head to the medina and find something festive to do to celebrate, as andy pointed out, entering my third decade of life. weird..

Was the sunrise as beautiful? Or were you up in time to see it? Happy 20th Birthday, Mary! How does one say "Happy Birthday" in Arabic?
