View from our street






Here are some pictures of our home. As you can see our garden consists of a small grassy patch at the front of our house. But in the first few weeks of arrival the girls would still play out there in the early hours of the morning. Our first girl has always been very observant and sensitive and here we have discovered she is also extremely culturally sensitive. In the first few weeks we were here she came out dressed to go out as pictured. The black top (mine) that she is holding was actually covering her face - but I suggested that it might not be necessary. The mosque is our local mosque which we hear throught the day and night calling everyone to prayer. Actually there are several very close by but this one is only a few hundred metres away and we pass it on our walk to the local shop. Okay, so I have never actually walked but the girls and Andrew do often before or after dinner for milk. However, they do deliver even as little as one egg so I don't think I will ever walk in this heat!
