I is back. :D


And I have some pics to share.

Wasn't sure where to put the thread, so I stuck it here out of the way of professional photographers and people who go to much more interesting places. If you are one of these people, please leave. :hyper:

Right. For the rest of you, here's what two weeks of sitting on the floor and shitting your internal organs out does to your sense of humor.

Please excuse the quality of the pics, but Santa Claus forgot to get me the camera I ordered. The fat b*stard.

This is the perfect plane for someone who suffers from claustraphobia and a fear of flying. Perfect.

Aerial shots of Malta. ... hmmhmm.. *helwa ya baladi*...

This is my favourite 'Libyan' drink. Apart from JB and coke. But that's not Libyan.

Mary had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb....

I swear, I did not try to eat the book. Ok. I did. Just once.

At least, the sun in Libya is the same sun in Malta. :hyper: I actually like this shot.

This is were I spent Christmas day. It's a greek amphitheatre called Sabratha. I am a fan of greek mythology, so this was the high of my "holiday".

This is a depiction of a play.. being acted out..

This depicts a competition in beauty between the three godesses in the middle; Aphrodite, Minerva and Juno. Left to right. The three women on the far left are the 'three graces'.

Then, I decided to get henna done. Usually I have a stencil done, this time I went for hand painted.. although the henna I REALLY like is hindi .. really thin, swirly and dark.. but this will have to do. :hmm:

The finished product..

Now, I'm off to weigh myself to see if the Libyan approved "Get Fat Fast" lifestyle has had it's effect on me.

Nice shots! Hope you had a great time in Libya. :) Glad to know that you're back to your country safe.

Shani is neither a Libyan nor an Omani drink! It's a PepsiCo product which is sold and marketed everywhere but the US...

Great shots Fungus, love the clouds from the plane and the amphitheatre. As for people going to more interesting places, I can't think of many I'd be more interested to visit than Libya!

More please!
