Middle East - Day 1




Just got settled in to Kuwait at Camp Arifjan... 108 degress at midnight, cool. This is a pretty upscale base, its feels like a college campus.

Tomorrow we are headed North to Iraq for the first show/run of the tour. Along with Catchpenny playing shows at bases, they are also having a 2 mile race with the troops as well as a couple of NASA astronauts. These races are the real deal... they brought all the technology over that they use in the Boston Marathon to time the runners. Awards, medals, and swag will be given away to the top performers (Chris thinks he's gonna sweep every race..... ha)

Here are a couple pics, one from the Amsterdam airport, Kuwait, and Zach sitting in the hall at our 'hotel' at camp Arifjan getting an wi-fi signal. I am currently sitting on a garbage can and my computer is on an ironing board in the laundry room.
