cp 5

On Tuesday May 31st 2016, I met my conversation partner Abdullah at the palace saloon for our third conversation session. I arrived early at nine o clock to secure a pool table and dart board for the evening waiting till nine thirty for Abdullah to arrive. Abdullah commented that I was not with my friends this time and I told him that none of my friends wanted to go out to a bar on a Tuesday night so it was just me and him. Although being one on one allows me to have more conversation with Abdullah, I could tell he was a little disappointed that he would not be socializing with other people. Needless to say, I played pool and darts with Abdullah till eleven thirty and despite it just being us, I could tell he had fun. I learned that night that Abdullah does not drink because his religion does not allow him to do so. I am glad that despite the palace being a bar that serves beer, Abdullah still went to an establishment unknown to him and socialized with people who drink.
