Although we both learned a few words Arabic, unfortunately it is still impossible to follow whole conversations in this fascinating language. Especially the sports commentary on Arabic TV is extremely hard to follow. Like all commentators in the world, they seem to talk faster and faster when it's getting more exciting and competitive. A bit tricky when you want to get full updates on the 'Tour de France'. In order for us to 'stay tuned', Frank searched for a Dutch radio channel that does the broadcasting of the Tour. The internet radio App on his Ipad came in very handy! (technology!..). So, the whole afternoon we were enjoying the nice images of the cyclists in France on Arabic TV, while we were listening to the Dutch commentators chatting the time away. The fact that they don't run entirely simultaneously, sometimes gives some funny effects: we already know who the winner is, while the Dutch commentator is still excitedly shouting and asking who will cross the finish line first. :) We will definitely
stay tuned during the coming sport events!
