Day Two

OK... so I've made it through day two. It was noisy... very noisy. This is not even half of the kids that were there. And there were lots of screaming babies too... and adults of course. Some idiot bought balloons and pellet guns for the kids. Oh, yeah, and there were some noisy plastic guns and more guns that had laser lights.. I think I am nearly blind in one eye now.

Tomorrow is day three of Eid ... hmmm.... sigh.....
