Dines at Stearns Wharf's Harbor Restaurant

The reigning monarch of Jordan, King Abdullah II, took a pause from his motorcycle trip down the coast of California to stop in Santa Barbara to eat at the Harbor Restaurant on Stearns Wharf Thursday. The king and a group of his hog-riding friends arrived at the restaurant around 1:30 p.m. and stayed until about 2:35 p.m. The group — all on Harley Davidsons — has been riding for a few days throughout the state.

I was able to find the full text of Rania's recent remarks

"Let me start with the traditional greeting of Islam: peace be upon you.

I welcome the opportunity to engage in this conversation, and I am glad to think global readers are interested in Islam, a religion shared and cherished by millions of men and women around the world. I hope that this exercise challenges perceptions that Muslims are somehow different…strange…a breed apart. The other.
