There are a number of restaurants throughout the market, so we walked along trying to decide which one we should try. We chose a restaurant by the name of Le Gourmet! They had a large variety of things on the menu, but Jon and I chose to share the grilled lamb. I am still trying to acquire a taste for lamb, but I have to say, it was pretty good.
After dinner we continued through the souk, trying to walk off some of the dinner! We stopped at a falconry shop so Jon could show Kevin the falcons! Jon has become obsessed with falcons and falconry. He bought a book online the other day that had something to do with owning, breeding and hunting with falcons! Can you imagine us with a falcon. I told Jon if he wanted a falcon than I was going to get my Irish Wolfhound. That would be interesting. A pet falcon and the biggest dog in the world. We're so weird.
Here are some pictures of our evening.
Here I am, Jon was trying to get the lighting right! He got me an amazing SLR camera for Christmas, and I have yet to learn how to use it! I love photography as you can probably tell from this blog, but I need to take a class so I can learn to capture better quality pictures.

We thought this building was very neat and beautifully illuminated so,
of course I took a picture.
They use these wheel barrows to cart items from the souk to vehicles.
I thought this guy was too cute. They have donkey rides for small children. Jon really wanted a ride, but I think he is too big for this little guy.
Happy Thursday!
