She just had Friday to tour. I gathered that she had a good time. A lot of things were overwhelming, and a 12-hour jet lag didn't help. She had to stay up until after midnight with the studio.
She was in Qatar, this morning, and should be on the other side of the world now. She'll be in Australia next week, then in India in a few weeks, then who knows? The Atlanta trip was a last-minute thing.
She comes from an upbringing/culture that doesn't ask questions. Getting her to go ask the concierge ANYTHING was difficult.
Apparently, I'm intimidating, but even the menus here can be intimidating. For example, at the sub shop, they ask what kind of bread (providing 6+ options), then the meat (6+ options), then the cheese (6+ options), etc. By the time they get to the cheese, some people are ready to start a WAR. Also, we serve meals without rice (how dare we), and rice often isn't on the menu. Then there's the drink situation. Here, when we want a drink, we don't want a shot-glass half full; we want a 32-oz or bigger. Over there, I used to order my food with 6 glasses of OJ, and 6 of milk, just to get me started. They're not used to having to answer questions about how the meat should be cooked, or what sides. They state what they want, and eat what's served. They don't complain if undercooked, or if the order isn't right. I don't like ice in my drink. It is very difficult there to customize your order. Getting a drink served without ice is nearly impossible. Oh, and trust me--you don't want ice in your drink in some countries. The water used to make the ice isn't safe to drink.
Oh, and they like to eat off other people's plates. If they take food off my plate, I'm done.
As much as I can't imagine eating fries without salt, they do not like salt on their fries. At least, not as much as we use. A lot of the food is too salty.
Yogurt they eat plain. Blah! I told her not to stir it.
It's fine, though. A few small meals never hurt.
