The Loudspeaker Guy

Our house is next door to the mosque so the morning call to prayer at 4:45 AM takes a little getting used to.  Amanda is trying to figure it out.  She thought that a man got a new loudspeaker and was driving around town trying it out.  Later she got tired of waking up so early and said, "I don't like that loudspeaker guy."  At dinner a few days later, she heard the call to prayer and got all excited and said, "Hey, I know that song."

Now the kids have adjusted to the first call in the morning and don't even wake up.  I still wake up, but it really doesn't bother me.  I just go back to sleep.  I don't mind the ezan or call to prayer which takes place 5 times a day.  It helps me keep track of time.
