... ocean and hourly tours for non muslims. It is hard for a non muslim to get inside a working mosque and I can't believe I missed this opportunitiy.

I loved the donkeys, couldn't see enough of them... with trailers, without trailers, tied to trees, with people on their backs, brown ones, white-grey ones... i was developing strong arguement for having a donkey in Bergerac as my main mode of transportation... just had to sort out a few details involving where i'd keep it, and what ...
