Photos

Here are some photos, I'm going to post alot more onto Picassa (click on one of the slideshows to the left to take you there) in the next few days. My internet is really slow so it takes forever to upload them.

Crossing the Tigris on a military floating bridge

Traditional Kurdish meal, pickles, soup, salad, rice, goat, chicken and rice and almonds, repeated all the way down the floor.

Excursion day.

The entry to the awesome cafe I spoke about a few entries ago.

From the bottom of the deepest canyon in the Middle East.

The waterfall at Gali Ali Baig... its dry season and there's been a drought for over a year, so its volume is really low. This is at the bottom of the deepest canyon in the Middle East,which is in the picture above this one.

These are the steps up to the Citadel, which is the center of Erbil. Its an old walled city that is one of the longest inhabited cities in the world. Right now there's almost nothing in it, only that they keep one or two families living there so they can claim that title... but the whole thing is falling apart and needs to be both excavated and restored.
