For some of the people here, please see if you can obtain a copy of Obama's birth certificate over there!

[dimbee]

Sounds like an amazing experience!!! Definitely be safe, bro!

For those who pray, please keep me in your prayers. I am traveling with Compassion International to Burkina Faso, Africa to visit two little girls I sponsor and to help with whatever else the organization needs me to do. I have received 3 goverment warnings the last three months, and one as late as Jan 8th. Al-Qieda has been kidnapping westerners and killing them on the border I have to cross. Please keep me in prayer and my family when Im gone.

I didnt post this to be a thread about religion or some kind of controversy, just asking for prayer. If you dont believe in prayer, I am ok with that and whatever you believe.

Thanks.

I will be gone from Jan21st to Feb 5th.

pics of bars, cars and hot women. please bring those back and your self. Dont drink the water, and carry as much of your own food as you can

Have you registered with the Embassy? I've learned of this and it makes you feel safer in international travels.

I recommend anyone traveling anywhere outside of the US to register each trip.

[tattoorhino]

Thanks Cosmo. I always register with the embassy also.

Be careful in France. I heard they kidnap Americans there too, drug them, then make them into sex slaves.

not to sound like an ass....but have you considered travelling as a Canadian?

don't wanna start anything here, but I do firmly believe that Canadians are typically safer in foreign countries than Americans are.

[tattoorhino]

I dont know if I can fake being gay enough to be canadian...

Just remember...leis are not made from car tires doused with gasoline. Doesn't matter how nice they seem.

bump... I have been wondering how this trip went... anyone heard from tattoorhino lately? This was before all the uprisings over there and all that, and I had been meaning to ask...
