This was my third time in the country,the first two were on Uncle Sam. This time was a complete change. Evidence of war and animosity was non existent from what I saw. The people were armed with smiles not AK-47's this time. It was quite a cultural experience and changed my thoughts from my past memories.

WOW! That first shot could be from National Geographic, Fantastic. The last one brought back old memories. I was there 1969-1970.

Nice pics. But from the 3 pictures it doesn't look like it has changed in 43 years since I spent a government sponsored year there. Except for the lack of the AK-47's, of course.

I too am intrigued by that # 1 photo...that is truly amazing and it seems to tell the story of her life almost by itself. Wow...wow and wow.
