The Citadel

Today, we went to an Ottoman Mosque built during the early 1800's. It is real touristy now so we didn't have to wear a head scarf. Women who were wearing sleeveless shirts or shorts had to wear a covering over their torso (not us). The lighting was my favorite part. There is a chandelier in the middle surrounded by circles of hanging glass globes.


We took a taxi home by ourselves today for the first time since we've been here. Thank Allah for Jess because she remembers the Arabic Hannah taught us and surprisingly knows how to get back to Hannah's flat.
