Tea break


Tea break
Originally uploaded by bastchild.

As I was wandering around the citadel's moat, I came upon these workers rebuilding a wall. They invited me for tea. Their English was limited and my Arabic ends after a brief exchange of greetings, so we played "name the capital city" game. The dude with the cowboy hat knew most of the capitals of the countries I had visited so far. When Geoff, a fellow American, showed up, and they found out he was American, they said, as everyone has done in the Middle East, "Welcome!"
