One of the translators wanted to have a party with us to say thanks and show appreciation for our efforts here. As our 6 months comes to a close she wanted to do something nice. She bought us pizza and we gathered in the Chapel Annex (kind of a small gathering place) for a few minutes of fun. Here’s a pic for you. She also gave us a small memento to remind of us the country and that there are many who are glad we are here trying to make things better for the locals.
One of the guys put his juggling talents on display as well.
The other thing of note today…vehicle swap. The trucks and SUVs we use here are leased. I guess it is time to turn those over for new leases. We dropped our truck off and not sure if or when we’ll get one back. It’s always something new. Here’s a pic of the long line of replacement vehicles. I heard some talking head on the news channel today say we are spending $5K per second in Iraq. Some say a picture is worth a thousand words…there must be some link between those sayings and this picture.
