The drive from the airport to the city at night means a great chance to see all the fairy lights set up along the roads. Roundabouts have them hanging from long poles, they are draped over fences and intricately woven into palm trees

Neighborhood boy's school where learning the Koran in Arabic is much the same as learning the Mass in Latin at a Catholic girl's school. Though we're different, we're much the same in every culture.

MANY RELIGIOUS DIFFERENCES

NEIGHBORHOOD MOSQUE--

I enjoyed living in an Islamic society, besides the cultural differences, there were subtle 'religious' differences, such as the muted 'call to prayer' five times a day, not having a glass of wine with dinner, not shaking hands with the men I was introduced to, or not having pork in a meal, but nothing oppressive as often is represented in movies or the news.

I enjoyed conversations with men and women, exploring the philosophical and practical diffrences between Christian life and Islamic life.

It seemed that as long as I approached a subject respectfully, I could have any question answered.

A successful federated structure and harmony between cultures are very interesting.
