Today we had our first 2 concerts at the festival. This festival is not anything like i've seen ever! it's like a miniature world's fair. Every country is represented, well, except for most of western europe and for the US it's us and KFC! But there is a whole section dedicated to Omani traditions and customs, filled with wedding traditions, to songs and dance, making of baskets, playing chess with sea shells and of course food. Then there is a whole international section that is like that Omani section but with countries like Sudan, Russia, Japan, Thailand, Vietnam a bunch more. It's amazing. Tonight we played with the beautiful backdrop of a huge mountain range, it was not a full house but the poeple that were there were generous in their spirit. People have been so friendly and nice here, everyone told us this but it is really true, I have more to say but right now I am sleepy and hope to make more grand statements in the future.
