I really enjoyed this! I am late to comment, but I think this is awesome. My sister studied in Jordan and spent some time in the West Bank so am sending it on to her too.

Selina – now is the time to do it check out family with only your redhead family.

Loved the photos and the commentary. Very G rated in contrast to Tommy’s elementary school work.!!!

DANG that wedding looks awesome! i mean, fireworks?!! yes!!!

also i second talena’s comment about that little boy in a tux… his face = mega squee.

on a more serious note, i appreciated your account of the passage into palestine. it’s good to get a first person perspective on a v. complicated, highly charged, extremely political (obvs) situation.

ok and equally serious: OMG WORLD’S BIGGEST KUNAFA!!!!!

Great photos! It’s really fascinating to see a part of the world that I’ve never been to (and might never have the opportunity to visit), and I just love seeing it like an insider! Thanks for sharing your adventures!

P.S. That cat massage lady is awesome. Her costuming, makeup, and hair choices definitely put it over the top.

Your dad is total Poshdeluxe material. I mean, he waxes poetical about food. He should be given an honorary Poshdeluxe doctorate.

Um…pumpkin desserts are totally my favorite, and I am soooo sad that I can’t get this dessert in Austin!

I also have to really appreciate a place where people show up by the busloads for sweets. That is some sweet tooth dedication right there. Hats off to them!

Thanks, Selina, for giving me so many wonderful ideas of where to visit. I look forward to my experiences in Kuwait.

PS the cutest picture ever was that little boy at the wedding.
