First weekend out, Charlotte followed the customs by wearing an abaya. This is in the restaurant in Ikea which was supposed to have good beef bacon, but did not. Croissants were very good. We really enjoyed the shopping cart so you didn’t have to carry your tray through the line and to your table.
Five days in Saudi Arabia and Charlotte is flaunting the rules with a grey sweater. Officially you don’t have to cover. Each day I see more or more expat women without an abaya. All Saudi women still wear an abaya.
