Over 15 days, today finally sitting in the Office. One morning, colleagues from time to time and out of Office greetings that asked most frequently a Word is: "you finally came, thought you were kidnapped?" and I was constantly repeated the story of the same story telling the Sudan and heard of the trip. The afternoon sitting down before it. 15 days of the scene a curtain in front of a curtain of Flash. While it is difficult to explain with words, simply review the itinerary and feelings, talk as a memento. First day: 15 October at the invitation of a company, have the opportunity as one of the four-member delegation to Sudan on the feasibility of an investment project, the company Manager (here called Manager), line 5 to 15 morning Beijing time to board the flight to Sudan. 15 days late, Sudan time 16: 30 pm (Beijing time 21: 30) aircraft landing in Khartoum International Airport (midway in the U.A.E. Dubai turn over 3 hours). Prepared by plane, the only real experience of parents in the film didn't see it coming down the cockle. Walk down the cockle stood waiting aircraft side transporting cart, hot air is not the case. I took out the camera lens, want to open the aircraft as the background to a picture of my colleagues, airport staff come gestures motioned to me to take pictures, managers told us that many places prohibit photography, photography, it is important to note that occasion. In the airport terminal, this mission of Sudan to cooperate company manager card if personally greeted, held a simple ceremony. I feel the Sudan man welcomes friends and warm climate, like in Sudan. Face full of brilliant smile, and we shook hands hug like old friends. In the Passport ticket etc to Sudan party of airport staff, waiting for a long time Soviet officers came back. Tell us on arrival procedures, only luggage could not remove the need for the airport we went to get my luggage. Managers often travel between Sudan, she knows she must play in the luggage of wine out of the question (Sudan drinking, drink unlawful). Previous baggage has Su staff fetching, never take yourself too. The luggage handed over to us, we went to get my luggage, card to leave. In the baggage, many Sudanese people surround you, we also can't tell whether the airport staff. Sure enough, as Manager, Soviet Party staff requirements out of the box checked. This will be checked out, team leader generation had to fill in a form acceptable disposal of confiscated alcohol (wine is our managers kaolao staff, she frequently between Sudan, if you access the relevant records in a pen, every time her luggage will not be able to successfully access off), this way they accept. There we have accepted many of the Sudanese people enthusiastic sieges, to help you push the baggage, although repeatedly refused, but because of the language barrier, 4 luggage or have two vehicles were these people pushed his way to the parking lot and moved to the car. Installing your luggage, they side with gestures, shouted: "fiftydollar". Basic delegation only I do not understand English, but look at it even shout with pointing gesture, also understood is to tip and is $ 50. Less than 100 meter distance and just symbolic pushed push carts, and looting the difference. We were not to the stalemate, they cling to. But in the company of the Permanent Representative of Sudan took out 100 Sudanese pounds (about 50 US dollars or so) will they sent away. Sitting on the bus, all the way to a company in the hotel in advance to schedule. Soon, in the outskirts of one of the top high hung with Red Lantern of four-story building in front of, knew of this affirmation is Chinese-run hotel. Simple eaten the simple yet luxurious, welcome dinner, say simple because only eight dishes, and is in the domestic and the usual however bean products, rape, potatoes, eggs, etc., most luxurious two road is beef and Braised tilapia, which in the country is also a common occurrence. That luxury because a company's receptionist said this is specially ordered, from domestic who experts to prepare the best dishes. After the meal, there would be no luxuries. The good news is that we are to work on, or are getting about, what kind of meals can be eaten. But no wine, seems no reception atmosphere. Managers and company of other people went back to the resident. Our line is settled down to take a look at this soon-to-eat through live line 10 more days. Specific I wouldn't describe it, the team leader to his wife's SMS content is: has arrived safely in Sudan, Sudanese capital Khartoum to live in the suburbs of a Chinese farmer's yard turned out to be. In fact, there is no TV in the room, for example, does not provide towels, toiletries, etc is not as good as the farmhouse Jixian, mountain homes? but gratifying is the live some peacekeeping in Sudan police had lived here, I want to here the conditions should also be a good idea, at least there will be a sense of security. Simple wash, although after a dozen hours of running around, but I had little sleep, a second due to brain excitement because of time differences, there are more important is the window isn't there sounds of donkey called, the cock, barking, almost sleepless night. Trance, suddenly came the sounds of prayers, faint luminous I looked at his watch 4 points, companions both have to sleep, I'm only lie in bed and force myself to sleep, so finally drowsy sleep. Sit back and relax?
