Arabian Nights...

Cory, Me and Piers with our matching Arab garb.

So the other night we had an awesome evening full of Arab stuff.  The night started with a demonstration from two men who are the ones who do the call to prayer from the Al-Aqsa mosque, which is the third holiest mosque in all Muslim-dom.  It was soo cool, I hear it five times a day but something about hearing it live and from them in person was extremely awesome.  They also prayed in front of us, this is something that you don't normally see, so I was extremely grateful that they would offer to show us how they worship.  I know I would feel really strange praying on a stage for a bunch of people.

Me and women.  Lots and lots of women.

Following the demonstration we went to the Oasis for a delicious Arab meal.  The room was decorated up the wazoo, it was beautiful and seriously the food was extra delicious tonight.  We had lots of new foods that students helped cook.

Our Palestinian dance teachers (and Jenny, she's the blonde one)

After the feast that was a plenty, we headed to the gym for some Palestinian folk dancing.  Okay, the girls that came to teach were gorgeous.  Oh, and the dancing was fun too.  Haha, JK.  Seriously though, the dancing was soo much fun.  It was way difficult, I felt uber-uncoordinated.  Maybe I'll be able to post some videos soon.
