    While I was observing children marking lambs, their grandfather has approached me and invited me into his house for a cup of tasty arabic coffee. He put proudly on a display all his coffee pots and insisted that I had to take the picture of him and his wife when he is pouring the coffee into a cup. Later on I was offered to overnight there. That was a great end of my visit of syrian bedouins enclave.

Right after I got out of bus in first village I was greeted by the tractor driver and his jovial coworkers, who had appareantly so much fun with themselves. That was a great introduction into this place. by: breakingwave Views[732]
