Our Embassy colleagues are just over the wall, but they may
as well be in a different country. They
rarely get out, so they rely on us that do for much of their information. I see them at Donor meetings and talk to them
regularly. I must say, they are smart
and driven young people and as such they do live a lifestyle far different than
ours. We have General Order #1 which
pretty much precludes anything fun. They
have no such prohibitions, and like to party when the day is done. We go over to sample their food, local bar
(no drinks for us) and the open courtyards.
It is a refreshing escape from Camp.
Celebrating Asian Pacific Islander Day was a real chance to see how the
other half lives. Not bad. Back to my
Ghetto.
