Back To Prison...

To quote our friend Eduardo as we made our way back to Saudi Arabia, "Back to prison now."

Jeff and Eduardo drove over to Bahrain late Wednesday evening and made it to the hotel in the middle of the night. Jeff called to tell me he was on his way, and I made note to meet him down in the lobby around 1:30 or 2:00am, when he estimated he would arrive. I couldn't keep my eyes open so I decided to take a nap. I set the alarm for 1:20am, but it took me a long time to get out of bed. I finally made it out the door, but didn't walk four steps before seeing Jeff walking down the hallway toward me.

The three of us hung out Thursday and Friday, having a great time going to the movie theatre and eating in non-segregated restaurants. It was nice to have company again, after spending three days alone.

To beat the traffic, we headed to the Saudi-Bahrain causeway around 2pm. We were all sad to be heading back, especially me as I pulled the abaya back on before we reached the Saudi customs checkpoint.
