(Is this where they keep the holy grale???- the famous treasury building at Petra)

The Muslim holy month of Ramadan has officially started this weekend. Most shops are closed during the day as people are fasting and then the city comes back to life at night!! There are lots of beautiful lights and laterns decorating the city. We are currently trying to figure out all the crazy hours stores keep for Ramadan. I think one of my roommates should be coming back from vacation soon too.(circle in the town- a view from our lunch table)
Brent and I have been just hanging out in Alexandria, exploring some good cafes and reading and just enjoying being on vacation. Next week is Rina's (my language partner) sister's (Febe) wedding on August 31. I am super excited to attend the wedding and am looking forward to it very much. I will hopefully have some great pictures from the city during Ramadan and the wedding next week!
