'GO TO THE STREET THAT IS CALLED STRAIGHT'

THE UMAYYAD GREAT MOSQUE,DAMASCUS

I feel like I have trekked to the foothills of the Himalayas and back.
Beauty and I went to Damascus to visit Ariel and we returned dusty and exhausted on Friday evening.
I would definitely recommend it as a place to visit but go prepared!

Beauty also drank from a carton of orange drink that was 6 months out of date and this delayed our return home by 3 days, even then she stank out the plane. I apologise to everyone on our flight.

Beauty looking poorly.

Beauty was so poorly the first night of the sickness that half the night she slept on the bathroom floor and the other half she slept in the bath! Whilst she slept in the bath I watched her but when she was on the floor(which was not very big) I slept on the floor with her. I slept mostly lying through the bathroom door on the bedroom carpet.
We paid for a doctor to visit and he was there within 10 minutes. He gave Beauty anti-sickness medication and a prescription for other drugs and we paid £40 for a 25 minute visit and I was very impressed.If only we could pay for that kind of service at home when a child is sick.

Poor sick baby.

However, do not worry about buying medications,everything is readily available. Each item that we required cost approximately 50p and I also managed to buy Ariel some multi-vits and iron for 50p which at home costs me approximately £6.00 for a months supply.

Beauty has just woken up so I shall continue later.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEAUTY.....8 TODAY.
