Ramadan

Below is a presentation that was forwarded to me via email that Shell put together for their non-Muslim employees to let them know a little about Ramadan. It has been Ramadan here in Egypt for nearly a month and it's ending this Friday... As a foreigner working in a predominantly Muslim country it has been quite the experience that I'm glad to have had. Living in a "European" style hotel run by a Coptic Christian Egyptian hasn't exactly been too effected by Ramadan, but my work environment and other interaction with Muslims has been enlightening.

This weekend, starting Friday, we get 4 days off... Some of my co-workers are taking off to Europe or other places to take a break, while me and some others are sticking around the resort. We've planned a weekend of tournaments, including golf, poker, pool, and couple others. I'm looking forward to a relaxing and fun weekend, glad to have a break from travelling...

Hope all is well in your part of the world.
