Getting Out...

OK, so I made it home safely. But what an experience, the people however impoverished are hospitable to say the least. They want to help you. Is it because they are doing there job or would they just as soon cut off your hands if they met you in a dark alley, I hope not to find out.

Even the ride to the airport was an adventure, we are almost to the airport when I start to notice a lot of policia along the road we were on, then next thing I saw was about 300 cops dressed in there full riot gear. The driver I had did not speak any English, so I could not ask him what was going on, all I was thinking was please drive a little faster I don't want to be caught in the crossfire if the shit hits the fan. I did make to the airport obviously, I got there 3 hours early.
I went through security right away. I did not want like the French fellow that was shot in the head in the lobby just a week ago.

There are a lot things that are wrong with our government, after that trip I appreciate what ours does do for us...

  1. Good point. Even with the executive branch we have right now, it's a ton better than 99% of the world!
