In Khartoum, Sudan, the blue Nile meets the white Nile. Yesterday, Some of the team and I took a tour of the city and went to see the Nile. It was pretty cool. I dipped my foot in it. I apologize, but I could not take any photos without risking getting arrested. It would not be good. It sometimes feels like I am in a movie. Between the heat, the elaborately decorated Tuk Tuks (three wheel mini taxis) blazing by while you risk your life trying to cross the street, or the prayers that you can hear echoing throughout Khartoum during the day, this place is definitely an eye opener and a place I can call home for now. The only thing missing are a few waves and my surfboard...and beer...and vodka.
Cheers,
Gonzo.

Excellent play by play buddy. Amazing story to this point.. and to think you just arrived. Don't chance the photo's thing as that seems to me the stickiest rule around. I agree with the Mobbsters... you may wish to brush up on the o'l english... and be very careful of dangling your participle in the Nile...
ReplyDeleteOn second thought, hey, do you mind grabbing me a photo of the Airport??? Google earth didn't do it justice.... oh, and maybe a the rear entrance of a military installation... that'd be cool. (JK :)
Later buddy
