A beautiful Mosque

We had the chance to visit a local mosque and I was super impressed. This wasn't a large scale place of worship, it wasn't big or elaborate and I loved it. This place wasn't a tourist site intent in impressing, it was simply a place for faithful people to come to pray. I love the honest faith and heartfelt humility of the Muslims that I have met.

Oh something kinda neat, I told you about Shabon yesterday that I met in the old city right? Well the man who showed us around the mosque got chatting with us and it turns out that they are brothers-in-law! Ok, I thought that was awesome! Of the ten or so locals I know personally, three of them are related and I met them independently:) turns out they married into a family with eight daughters and they all live here in town! So now I've just got to go find the other five:)

It's been a jolly good day.
