Another new experience today.....a brother of our electrical engineer at our office is getting married soon. So our engineer invited me to go to lunch with him, along with my boss and another guy. He did not say it was a bachelor party luncheon. Now mind you, there is no drinking in Libya and women are covered up so what does one expect to see at a Libyan bachelor party? FOOD of course and lots of guys sitting around in this huge catering hall. There must have been 200 guys at this place. They were all having a great time and we had a sit down luncheon.
We had roasted lamb and cashew rice and fruit juice and a potato pancake that was stuffed with a thin layer of hamburger. We had our after dinner coffee and it was back to work we went.
I was stuffed and ready for a nap when I got back to the job site.
I felt bad for being a wedding crasher, but as they say in Libya, "No Problem...."
