Friday morning I did some more Arabic work. We took the 5 o'clock bus to City Stars Mall and went grocery shopping at Spinney's, which is like a Meijer's or Wal-Mart. It was quite the adventure. I got a lot of bread (surprise, surprise). And we picked up pasta to cook, but somehow lost the bag with the pasta in it...at least that bag didn't have anything expensive in it.
After shopping, we got a late dinner and ate up on the roof of the cafe. It's gorgeous up there at night - you can see campus lit up with all the trees, and stretches of desert at dusk. It was incredibly gorgeous. I stayed up much too late gabbing, but it was a lot of fun.

It must be gorgeous. But how, pray, do you get your food up the roof? Please excuse my limited knowledge of restaurants, for my idea of a roof is a place for anything but dining!
ReplyDeleteNice weekend!
Mark.
The architecture on campus is really, really cool. All of our roofs are open, because it almost never rains in Egypt. So there's a staircase up to the top, and some chairs and tables.
