Eid in Damascus was expected to be a lonely and boring experience. But it actually turned out to be a real fun and enjoyable day. Here was some of the pics:

On the way to Eid Prayer at the Omawi Musjid
But Elvis was in the building so it was invite only!
So we went to find another Musjid to pray at...
A simple yet delicious breakfast of eggs, cakes and Badaam milk!
A novice attempt at samoosas - in Syria - vegetarian of course:)
Happy Eid- with a delicious choclate cake!
Eid is 3 days- so there is plenty of time to visit the Eid Fair.
Everybody is out and having fun..
And that was Eid in Damascus!
