A little lesson on Ramadan
So Ramadan started last week. Ramadan is when the good muslims fast and obstain from all things naughty and nice during daylight hours for a month. From 4am till 6pm nothing can pass through their lips. No water - nothing. So while I'm dying in the heat and guzzling bottles of water. Everyone around me is going around hungry and thristy. Except for the like 1% non-muslims. Also there is no smoking, no sex, and lots of praying, and Tv is all special - encouraging you not to break your fast and it tells you when you are allowed eat again. It's a bit like Lent I suppose - except all things bold can go on when the sun goes down! Then when Ramadan is over it's like Christmas woohoo - party time for a week in Indonesia - That's when I go meet all of Ipung's family. Better start studying my Bahasa Indonesia!
