Today's hike, which was blessed with at least partial clouds and reasonable temperatures. I love these hikes because of the arabic practice they give me. Each time I go I understand more word and more phrases. Though my fellow hikers need not yet fear that I can understand enough to properly eavesdrop. The juiciest thing I fully overheard today was "My friend's wife lives there." "Friend" and "wife" are new for me this week.
