On Thursday, November 27th, the staff of the Schutz School were treated to a delicious Thanksgiving meal prepared for them by the fabulous school cooking crew. I snapped some pics of the cooks along with their boss, Seham. She is in a couple of the photos.
The rest of the photos were taken today, Friday, November 28, as Krs and I went for a walk around the school neighborhood and then, later, I went for a solo stroll to the sea to see what I could see. It's takes about 15 minutes to get to the Corniche, the walkway/street which hugs the Med.
