Kadmous = bus from Palmyra to Deir es-Zor.
1 bad batch of spaghetti the night before travel (spaghetti shoudl be safe, right?!?)
1 morning in the bathroom (stomach hurts sooo much)
1 immodium (+other medication for sleeping)
1 hot desert day
1 taxi ride to station with driver who is trying to tell you alternative (more expensive) ways to travel
1 45 minute wait in a station with many flies (and a meat carcass)
1 terrifying trip to the bathroom (= hole in the ground)
40 other Syrian passengers staring at the only Western travellers (clearly confused and in the way)
2 large back that have to go under the bus (this means forfeiting the spot at the front of the line and boarding LAST)
1 2.5 hour ride (thank g*d for air con)
1 interrogation at police station upon arrival
1 rush to get the bags before the bus departs again
All said and done, we are now in Deir es-Zor. E is eating bread and peanut butter.
