Out of luck

Everything shuts down during prayer time, which happens five times a day. We were pretty low on gas (and very far from the DQ) when we encountered this sign.

Caffeine fix, posted earlier.

Wow. How long do prayers usually last? I guess the wait time might be similar to driving an electric vehicle and having to wait for a recharge.

A great symbol of a different world sort of leaning to the West with the coffee shop sign V
