From Galka'yo To Bosaso

On our way from Galka'yo to Bosaso (750kms) in the central regions of Somalia, we passed the major towns of Garowe and Qardho which have been more populated than I thought. Here I depict some of my observations while on the one-day long trip.

Ever-stretching roads
Camels on both sides
Shrubs and potholes
Whistling winds
Plains and plateaus
Ascending
Descending
Tired souls
crabby drive
Sordid faces
Grey meadow
Anxiety
Anticipation
Apprehension
Lunch Breaks,
Stop-overs
Camel milk
Checkpoints
Uniformed police
Passing shadows
voluble chaps
Glittering sands
Gliding birds

Safe journey brother. The combination of uniformed police and camel milk gives the maximum peace of mind to the enlightened Somali. I am sure you longed for this kind of peace.
Thank you brother Abdinoor. I am with you on this journey.

Thank you for sharing your journey Abdi-Noor!
The beauty of words: embracing our minds.
Thank you for sharing with us, what we can only imagine; and fall short. Your experience is so valuable. Your life so very precious.
Keep gliding with birds and opening our eyes.
Love, Suzie
