When he found out that I had once lived in Saudi Arabia, my neighbor was interested. "Maybe you can tell me this," he said. "Is there really any reason for me to visit Saudi Arabia considering the only city I really want to see is banned for me?"
I gasped. "You want to go to Mecca?" I asked with the internalized shock of nearly 50 years of being a former expat resident of the Kingdom. "That's not allowed!"
"Exactly!" he laughed. "That's why I want to go!"
