Back in Munich  for an upcoming busy week. Inerestingly.. this is a time when travelers from Arabic speaking countries tradtionially come here for vacaition. Our hotel is one of the prefereed places to stay.. lots of folks on staff are Arabic speakers..

 

like last year, they set up a special ‘sessha’ resturant.. sheesha is ‘water pipe’.. kinda like a fancy bong. 

My buddy Al, Lisa and I went and checked out their ‘grabe-mint shessha..

grabe-mint.. whata  weird mi.. but it tasted great..

 

I’ve never been a tobacco guy.. in fact. i’ve only smoled three ciggaretes in my life and they all were on Dec 31, 1979 in VIenna on a very cold night…

 

burt.. this water pipe thing is pretty cool.. not that I think tobacco is good for you, but this is pretty interesting. .. and if you don’t do it often..it’s very powerful..i really feel it after a few  … uh.. hits ? tokes ? .. sorry.. my language on this is geared towards my more preferred ‘brand’ . 

 

 

 

Nice being here with Al who’ds a native arabic speaker himself.. he got us ‘the good stuff’ 

 

 

thank goodness we had food.. .. this stuff made me pretty queazy 

 

ok.. time for sleep….. just fell asleep at dinner 🙂 

nite all. nite sam
