Sitting there, in your own hotel while missiles and bombs land all around you. Some of them are literally landing on your doorstep.
It really must be quite amazing to watch, yet incredibly scary...
But you shouldn't be scared because the US haven't targetted your hotel as many journalists are staying there and it isn't worth blowing up...
I love fireworks and thunderstorms, just that feeling when you can feel the real force from the explosions, I'd just love to be there watching and feeling it...

It was good fun...
;)
We went for like 7 years running. I'd be lying in my tent in all the quiet when I would hear the grumbles of thunder in the distance.
As the storm drew closer I would hear raindrops on the tent.
then it would absolutely pour down, the whole tent would light up with the lightning and the ground would literally shake with the thunder!
I loved it, this is like at 2 in the morning too!

While i was in Florida you would get a really deep thunderstorm about once every 1-3 nights, on one night i went out onto the shaded pool deck with my bottle of beer and just watched and listened, i could see the forks coming down behind the houses, and then the rolling boom. It was awe inspiring.
I went to Egypt, which isn't a bad place, but on every street corner there were armored Police with Guns. It was pretty scary. On top of that, the public would stare at you like you are scum. I couldn't take being around all these Guns and stuff so I never went through the Streets much again.
In Iraq it must be worse. Much of the population of Baghdad have alot against Americans and the British and it's not like they haven't got Guns. And this time it's not only the Police with them.
Just to continue the trend...
And I might as well continue the trend....
Note how all the last posts have ended with an ellipsis....
They show a clip that someone filmed from their hotel, you hear the roar of the missile over your head and the building in front of you explodes...
Just that adreneline rush...
