Well I saw the same car yesterday. I had my interpreter with me so I was able to talk with the guy. He is very cool and offered to let me drive it.

He was in kind of a hurry so I was not able to. The one day I don't have my camera with me. I will carry it with me next time. So I will get some pics.

It is rough in a few spots. The roads here are not very S friendly. Watching most of the drivers here kind of scare you. White lines are just decorations on the road here. Speed bumps come out of nowhere, especially at night since they don't have reflected paint on them. So if you are not paying attention you catch some air hitting these dam things. I did it the other night in a Kia Sorento. I got Ice and water all over the back of the SUV. At least it dried with the heat over here.

Hopefully in Mid Aug. Maybe Sep. I just know I still have some time left. Funny thing is I am going to school. It has all ready made the days go by faster because I have something to occupy my time.

Will be seeing you guys around soon enough.

Yeah although people think arab/muslim people are crazy/terrorists, they are really nice people and I wouldn't doubt the guy meant for you to actually drive his car. I once complimented a guy on his watch ($200+) and he tried to force me to keep it.

They are crazy drivers though I am not even sure why the lines are painted on the ground.. they dont use them.

Are you allowed to eat in the city? Thats one thing thats awesome about being in the middle east.. If you are I can tell you some dishes that are pretty good.

My last assignment had me all over the middle east. Well this is a deployment and I am pretty much "chained in the yard". I have been down town in the past and yes the food is great. The coffee is great. At first I thought it taste horrible, I was asked if I wanted some more and I said, "yes please". I aquired the taste. Lots of Chi (tea). I have been invited to eat with the Host Nation Military guys and we sit on the carpet, (I take off the gear and rest the rifle against the wall) and have had some great food. I enjoy the hamas, the scharmas, and dates. I don't really care for the dates though. Just me. I have made some great friends here. Now that they are getting to know and trust me they are allowing me to train them to be better solders.

I know he would let me drive it. I just had to tell him I had a car just like his. He gave me the

You are right about them giving you something if you express interest. Even a nice compliment saying it looks nice gets you in a situation that you are not use to. The hospitality is top notch here. As I tell my Airmen here. Don't take advantage of it.
