Eid Mubarak
First of all, Eid Mubarak to everyone...
Yesterday was the first day of Eid ul-Fitr here in Tunisia, as well as in most Arab and Muslim countries, marking the end of Ramadan for this year.
This Ramadan was a bit harder than previous ones, mainly because the weather is still hot, and the day is long; still it's only a preview of what's coming in the next years as Ramadan advances well into the burning hot endless summer days.
As usual, we hopped into our little car and zipped around Tunis, greeting family members and wishing them all a happy and blessed Eid.
Now we'll be back to our usual lifestyle and daily routine, back to a normal diet, back to everything as it was a month ago; I hope, at least, that some people will take away something more from it than just a few extra kilos from all the eating and sweets, something a bit more spiritual.
Again, may it be a blessed and happy Eid for everyone.
Eid El-Fitr in Tunisia Another Year, Another Ramadan Ramadan Mubarak Ramadan Mabrouk Ramadan And It's CrescentHappy Eid my dear friend :)
I hope that you didn't stole the "mahba" of the little Adam as many parents do :-P
I admire you guys in a Muslim country. Here in Japan, there is not much even after you complete Ramadan. But in any case, aid mabrouk!

@Cactussa: Koll 3am ou inti 7ayya b'5eer :)
@Orange: Happy and blessed Eid to you and all your loved ones :)
@Momo: Well, I'd like to say there is much more than there is in Japan following Ramadan, but well every year there's just less and less, or maybe that's just a personal observation. What's conserved is rather because it made it into tradition, but that's still good I guess.
