( Is it the mercy of allah.or another day to live)
well its been a while since a posted some thing, busy with work and allot on my plat.
today i thought i well post some thing along the memory lane,
once i flow from abudhabi to Aden in ( Yemen) to do with work.i flow with the Yemenis air line a very old plane and not even clean in side.
as we where approaching the air port and ready to land it star to shake ,i had a prayer and said here we go.i never thought there the worst waiting to happen
as we touched down safely we all star to walk towards the immigration who they are setting in a wooden hut.suddenly it was a total black out in the airport and all the soldiers disperse,with all their guns the first thing came to my mind was a coup.so it was a total darkness it was me a Libyan , and two other guys one from USA and the other German.was panic all over the place, so i said to the two guys lets just hide in side the hut as if there is gonna be firing they will aim high,we where shaken and petrifying,then out of the blue the electricity came back,thank god,
as every body else movements in the go.we came out of hiding pale faces, stood in line for the immigration officer, what i noticed about his mouth was a ma zing so swollen i thought it was an deficiency, then most of the other sold ires look the same.then i found out what it was is they restored this kind of drug for days called(قات(ghat to give them extra energy and be a wake most times,
as they stamped my passport.they asked me to help them go through the back listed index to find out of those two guys are wanted wooooooow i was so scared to do so. they said Ur Libyan we trust u,luckily the two guys where clear .we all went to the hotel to rest after the shock,we had a lough.
but what would happen if the black out went while we are landing. only Allah knows that.
i find out not only men store the ghat women's to,they said it gives them extra drive specially for married once, good idea to spend the honeymoon in garden Aden
the place was full of Ravens birds which i hate.
but the funny thing and how as a Libyan been trusted while i was there i went with a friend to have his photo taken, and the guy said to me i know u? i said what he said we have Ur photo here, how come, surprise to me the Yemenis secret police have copied my passport photo, thanx for the trust,i said prove it, and yes it was my photo
i just can not wait to be out of Aden so quick.
then he tried to bribe be to eat habhab( watermelon)as they call it
AM very thank full to allah and his mercy, maybe it was awake up call for me
sorry its been along post,hope u all enjoy it.
Sal am

Salam Dusk Till Dawn,
Wow! I was sweating and my heart was racing as I was reading---hoping all would be ok......FORGETTING that you started out by saying you were going back in time, which should have been my first clue that you survived it as you were posting it later. :-P So good job story telling, and more importantly - I'm glad your survived, alhamdullilah.
I had a friend who used to live in Yemen when he was a kid and he told me in High school they used to play with Kalachnikovs and some students walked around with bodyguards and strange stuff like that .... as for the ghat its a form of narcotics and its a drug I think its illegal in some places at least its export is. Ive heard they sell it in Somalia as well.
salaam and thanks for sharing your adventure :P
nice adventure. lol 1st time i hear that libyans are trusted..lol...jk. neways may u have many more safe trips.
