Syria Day 2 Pics

Sorry my pictures didnt upload in any order, but I thought you all would enjoy seeing some more fun from my first day in Syria!

All the little "shebab" or boys were SO interested in us American girls. They were so funny, but also really intense, they wanted our phone numbers and were smoking like little men, it was crazy.













The Palace courtyard opened up and there were a bunch of rooms you could enter with artifacts and really interesting art.







All the girls posing for a picture!









The courtyard from another angle








Inside the mosque, this is where the imam stands and recites from the Quran.









The cafe we ate lunch in!







The "putting on special clothes room" where we had to dress to go into the mosque.

The entrance for "visitors"- we were only allowed in the main part of the mosque which was a bummer
