    We love it. Fell in love with the place and we just haven't been able to shake the idea. So we decided to go for it!

    hi rich, yes thats right and almost everyone will respond to that. You would reply "WA ALAKUM ASALAM" which means AND PEACE BE UPON YOU. In the Gulf region they also say "AHLAN WA SAALAN" which means HELLO AND WELCOME.

    hope thats of some use to you.
