We all missed our connection from the US in Amsterdam, so they sent us to Bahrain from Amsterdam, then we all missed our connection in Bahrain - the first thing we did after arriving to the hotel in Bahrain at midnight was head to the "Australian" pub in Bahrain with a Filippino cover band and Chinese waitresses, and American GIs drinking

me, Andrew, englishman who lives in Florida, Shamjith from Mumbai India, and Tom From Michigan




After the beers, we went for more beer and some awesome middle eastern food at a late night restaurant
















Our hotel




Another beautiful meal


Shamjith bought a gold bangle for his sister's wedding - Bahrain is THE place to buy gold along with other jewelery
