this was lunch. i already ate the green beans with their special spices and the lamb sausage (not pork but close enough). there's still some watermelon left if you want some. today i got a camel attache (that's a bag made of camel, not a dromedary version of "my man friday") a "screen on the green" blanket, some soap, a special berber sinus/anti-snoring potion and a present or two. but after all of that, i was VERY hungry, so now i am most excited about my watermelon. juicy watermelon. aaaaaaaaauuuuugggghhhh. btw, i realized i have never had a vacation where i wasn't "running the show" before. i will either learn patience or suffer an anuerysm : ) i'm praying for patience, understandably.

just had soup, salad and watermelon at the house i'm staying at the first two nights. this is eva. she was kind enough to let ben and i crash at her place. pictured here she is drinking my water. she thought this was EXTREMELY funny. so far so good. unfortunately i am in desperate need of a shower and there is none to be had here.

we're safely on the ground here in north africa. the girls all have their elbows and ankles covered, so we're ready to hit the town. only 95 degrees right now at 2:10 based on my 9/5's of the celsius plus 32 conversion formula. here rodney demonstrates his unusual sleeping technique where he straps his head to the seat. it's the 8th wonder of the world. feel free to respond whether you think he looks more like a kid dressed up like batman or a kid dressed up like zorro.
