Qatar and Bahrain







I finally arrived in Bahrain. I figured I'd post some pictures so everybody would know what it looks like over here. This first picture is of our tents in Qatar. It's like 5 in the morning and foggy. Those tents were actually pretty nice. That next picture is just me later in the day. The galley there was awesome. In the two days we were there, I ate like 12 times at the galley. We played some ping pong and ate most of the time. Surprisingly it was pretty nice. On Monday the 10th we departed Qatar for Bahrain on this little rickity Navy airplane I thought was going to fall out of the sky. We got to Bahrain and surprisingly Bahrain is pretty high tech. The city is so modern that it amazes me. We checked into our five star hotel where we will stay for the next six months. It's a hard life i know. Actually it will be pretty hard, being away from everything you know is mind boggling. I can't quite make my mind adjust to life out here. I miss all of you and especially you Mandy. But the good new is that it will be over soon! Six months and I'll wake up. Well there will be more to come soon!
