Dressed up in new cloths for the end of fasting.

Fasting is over for one more year. Here people make models of their mosques or other religious symbols and carry them down the street on the last day of the fast.

Making cookies to celebrate the end of fast in just a few more days. The oven is the silver box, the box sits over a kerosene stove. The cookies have pineapple and papaya jelly in the center and a clove stuck on top to make it look like an apple.

For the next three moths I'm helping teach these kids English two mornings a week. Today was the first day and another man was supposed to teach but he walked out and left me all these kids to myself.

This is my friends wedding photo. No one is getting married right now during fasting. This is also the girl that I study the local not the notational language with. She's a good friend and a good source of info about what's going on around me. They are now expecting their first baby.

Sandels outside the mosque as people get ready for the start of the fasting month.

This was when I had to go and say goodbye to my friends before they moved. These girls have been fun friends. Please keep remembering their family. And the last photo is Yasin, the girls brother in law that was in the accident. He's gotten to come out of the hospital but I think still needs to stay close by his doctors for a while. I think Yasin took this photo of him self when he was using my camera and this was several months before the accident.
