Friday is here and some free time to add another blog to the collection. Today I was able to sleep in a little longer than usual. I stayed up late last night to chat with Carol. When Indiana changes there clocks then I will be seven hours different. I might have to learn to live on five hours sleep soon. So I enjoyed my extra shut-eye this morning.
Usually I hear the morning chant of the local mosque.....today it was different. I was awakened by my twelve year old neighbor practicing the tuba. I can tell you from past experience, that he is a very early beginner. I am thankful that he did not start his lessons at 8 a.m.
Today is the Holy Day around here. So nothing is open until after 4 p.m. This gives me time to check my Facebook and LinkedIN connections.
I had dinner last night with my new American friends across the street. They invited me over to meet the head of the Anglican Church of Tripoli. He is performing memorial services in a number of places in Libya to remember the fallen soldiers during World War II. Northern Africa was the sight for a number of major battles. In fact someone told me that most of Benghazi was wiped out from the bombings during WWII.
So most of the buildings in town have only been around since the war was over.
My neighbors gave me a care package of leftovers and chocolate brownies on the way home.
They really made my weekend......talk to you soon.
