I had some time so I thought I would post again. Oh my gosh, it's hotter here than in Balad! This place makes Iraq seem like a ski resort. The temps are the same, but tack on abut 60% humidity. The white sand everywhere makes it worse. The wind doesn't help either. It just blows extremely hot air in your face. The UV index is maxed out at 11+, which means I am staying inside as much as possible while I am here. I looked up the temp in Bagram and it is 85 there right now. At least it is cooler there. That's the only thing better about it! By the way, I will be taking off at about 9pm my time. I wish I could take a picture of this place, but cameras aren't allowed anywhere here on base. The Qataris are extremely strict. Bridal magazines are considered pornography here. Anything that shows female skin is. You can be deported because of it. And to add to it, they hate Americans, so they really look hard when we go through  customs. We had to go through 2 different customs offices just to get the base. It's crazy. Well, the next time I post will be in Afghanistan. Until next time...
