i'm a dingbat i forgot all about it and watched the closer. it was repeated at 11 and started watching it but fell asleep. but Queen Noor looked beautiful (she was wearing blue) and spoke very eloquently about the problems facing Jordon and the area in the portion i saw.
sometimes a show is repeated on saturday night's when larry king's program usually isn't live, check it out this weekend but don't know if it will be shown or not.

I saw and Queen Noor seemed passionate in her concern for the people of her region. I guess everyone in the JRF is working to bring about peace in the region and increase humanitarian aid to people in need.

I enjoyed the Larry King show very much. It was great to see the Queen speak as well as several others. I am still coping to come to a complete understanding of this war. It must be a hard time for her, I mean the queen . I agree with you Heidi, must be hard for her and all those who want some some end to it all and especially for the children.

it must have been cold there, have seen other pictures from there and all the visitors have worn gloves.
but isn't the white scarf a sign for grief, is it ?

Wich Caftan are you talking about? A caftan is a Morrocan traditional dress for women. I'm from Morroco and I know what I'm talking about.

you're right Joumana,this is not a caftan,QN Wears a jordanian dress I think,I don't know the name of the traditional dress there but caftan is the name of the draditinal dress in morocco.royal ladies(Especially rania and princess mouna) in jordan Wore Designs inspire from moroccan caftan but other dress are not caftan like what QN wears here.

I agree the kaftan or Caftan is the moroccan traditional dress,but I guess that since they are very popular in Europe and even in US,than any other middle eastern traditional dresses,people used to call all the arabic or oriental dresses Kaftans,sometimes even the long shirts with oriental touch are called Kaftan.

The traditional Jordanian/Syrian/Palestinian dresses are called Thoub, or Toobe,not Kaftan.
