The day before we left Uganda I had the opportunity to visit the Gaddafi Mosque. It was a Friday, the day of prayer, and I arrived without a headscarf, skirt or long sleeves since I knew the tourist center would provide them. I regretted this decision as I waited, in improper garb, for about 45 minutes to be helped, and I hoped I was not offending anyone by being ill-prepared.
