Visiting the Lord Provost of Dundee


29/June/ 2011


Today we departed from Al-Maktoum College at 9:30. After arriving to the college and having a warm welcome from Dr. Hossein Godazagar, we started a lecture about globalization and multiculturism. We defined both terms and discussed them. It was an interesting discussion with various points of views! 








After that, we had a 15 minutes break to get some coffee. Then we moved on to a whole new category which is music. Our instructor for the day, Emily Hunter, lectured us about voice and vocals. We got a chance to learn a new song and rehearse it. 




After lunch in the Al-Maktoum College, we went to meet the Lord Provost of Dundee city. They welcomed us over there and told us about Dundee and the history of various lords of the city.


 










Then we got the honor to see their “Symbol of Authority” and “Chain of the office”. 




Later, we got a chance to do some shopping in order to prepare for the ceilidh.





The ceilidh is a social gathering where Scottish music is played and Scottish dancing is performed. That is what we did. We learned many different Scottish dances and we had so much fun. We got a lovely gift from them as you can see in the photo below.



This day we had so much fun, we are excited for the next tour :)
