LIT in Djibouti

The band LIT was in Djibouti and played at the new cantina here on Camp Lemonier. Here is one of many shots I got at the concert.

Tree of Life Bahrain

Got to see the Tree of Life. It is fascinating to see something grow in such harsh conditions. When we went out to the tree of life it was probably about 110 or so and the winds were blowing heavily. The winds were hot because of the desert heat. Despite all the odds this one tree out in the middle of the sand, surrounded by desert, oil pumps, refineries, and oil pipelines, is still alive is beyond me. That is the fascination of The tree of life. Enjoy the picture. Check out more on the tree of life by clicking on the tree of life.

Well here is a picture I got from out of my window. that's it for now

I am posting this picture I took of the sunrise on 5-31-07. Hope you all enjoy it.

Sharing my living space.

I took a few pictres f my living quarters here. It's not bad.

My luggage finally arrived ;)

I am happy to write that I got a call yesterday that put me in touch with my luggage. My Listerine bottle was broke and both my bags were opened but I think for the most part everything was there. I was very happy to see it. I suggest to anyone going over seas , do not use Daallo airlines, they will loose your luggage and then you are screwed at least for a while. I haven't heard one good story about luggage and Daallo.

Enough about Daallo!!! I have the next couple days off here in Djibouti and I am taking the time to study for my upcoming classes in BMC Remedy. This should be a great experience I am going somewhere new and learning something more in depth.

Everything is well in Djibouti the weather is gradually going up. It will probably be at least 110 today. I will try and get a good picture to upload tomorrow. Until next time.

Cheers

One Cheetah Picture for now

I had to put one of my pictures up on the web. That's the least I could do. I have a bandwidth issue where I am at. Enjoy!

Djibouti cheetah Refuge Camp

I took a cool trip to a cheetah refuge here in Djibouti. It was excellent. I took some great pictures of wildlife it was a great adventure. I am thinking of getting a flicker pro account so I can start uploading my pictures. The picture above was taken on the way back from the trip. This is a must do for anyone that comes to Djibouti. There was the smell of dead animal on the trip so strong that it almost induced vomiting. That's not why you should go but it was something I had to share. I hope everyone can enjoy the pictures soon.

Cheers,
