The weekends in Bahrain are Friday and Saturday with the holiest day of the week being Friday. People go to prayer as family units these mornings just like church on Sundays in the US. Afterword, people spend time with their families or friends. Amer, a friend of mine from Lebanon, invited me to his neighborhood Friday lunch. It is a potluck with some of the best food anywhere. The people we met were from Lebanon, Syria, India, Bahrain, UK, and Venezuela. It really is a united nations event anyplace you go. Plus, one of his Syrian neighbors makes the BEST hummous I have ever eaten. I like it!
