Souk it to me.

It’s pretty much a mall.

Last weekend Molly, Frances, and I headed out to the Arabian Souk. (Souk is Arabic for market.) There are several types of souks around town… so you never quite know what you’re in store for. We were pretty excited to visit this one. Not only is it wedged between the two bridges with an awesome view of the Grand Mosque… it also offers boat rides!

Unfortunately… because we insist on being active on Friday afternoons (the Sabbath, basically)… most of the shops were closed. Considering that this souk turned out to be essentially a really fancy mall… it didn’t really matter.

We decided to dine on some sushi and enjoy the atmosphere of the golden hour.
