A low key birthday was had on the 30th of October, this 2007. Mike, Hen, Daniel and I decided to skip our second Politics lecture involving an elaborate escape plan from our Center where we barely made our way down an alternative stairwell out the front door before the angry tribals got us with their spears...my imagination got a hold of that thought. wont happen again. sorry.
We took some taxis down to Marjane (a big superstore on the water) to purchase a picnic of bread, bad cheese, dark chocolate, 7up and a bottle of Sunrise Tequilla. Its amazing how many "muslims" are buying alcohol. I put the quotations because alcohol consumption is forbidden in Islamic law. Almost everyone in the checkout line had some form of alcoholic beverage in their pile of stuff. I found the irony interesting. Is it hypocritical, hypothetically speaking, for a Islamist man to hate America, even though he is buying a six pack of Budwieser? The consensus of my peers is yes.
Anyway, we went to the big and beautiful public park by the Hilton in Rabat and had our picnic, talked, laughed, played frisbee and hung out until it got cold. Pretty much, not much more I could have asked for granted my surrondings.
