airplane timelines } flight ME403 kuwait to beirut, july 26, 2015


sunday, july 26 } greasy fries at the airport. it wouldn’t have happened if i weren’t traveling with four teenagers

monday, july 27 } after spending a sweltering night at my parents’ AC-busted apartment in beirut, z and i traveled to shouf to stay with the family for a few days. here, my brother mo and little k at a river somewhere in the mountain

before the jump. i didn’t know what to expect at this river/picnic spot, so i wasn’t prepared to swim. i ended up jumping in completely clothed. there was something very liberating about it. or maybe that was just the frigid water

jana’s sister saba cheers the jumpers on. in a few minutes she’ll be jumping into the river too…fully clothed

tuesday, july 28 } i start the day replying to emails in my parents’ garden. i try to update my blog but there are too many distractions

since he’s amenable (well, he doesn’t have much of a choice), i photograph him with my traveling tap

eve enjoys the lebanese treetops. it’s midday now. we’ll probably go out soon. i’m ready for the city, so hope to go back down to beirut tomorrow
