Day 22: Forgot to have lunch again

One and a half days left before the journey back home. The weather seems to have cooled a little, taking it to 37 degrees C.

I've done all my shopping, pretty much packed my suitcase and performing prayers at the mosque as best I can, doing some extra stuff as I won't be here for much longer.

No amusing anecdotes to tell, nothing out of the ordinary to point out except that is for the man selling tea downstairs pointed a gun at me when I asked for three cups of tea. The gun was a toy one so the situation wasn't as grave as it could otherwise have been.

Finally shaved so I don't look 10 years older anymore. I have a picture somewhere though I won't be sharing it with anyone.

Not even you? Certainly not you. No, no, no, no, no.

I really do have nothing to say now except the cockroaches are getting bigger and braver. There's one staring at me now from the bedside table.

Eeek!
