Oh. My. Goodness.
Yesterday had to have been the best day I've had here. The Military Advisor to the UN assigned here in Irbil invited us to an awards ceremony. The Fijiian unit supporting the UN in Irbil is due to rotate, so this was their farewell ceremony.
Complete with grass skirts and a ukelele.
After the awards ceremony and reception, the soldiers sang their goodbyes. Sweet and deep voices. Friendly smiles. Welcoming and gracious demeanor.
And we were asked to join in the celebration...
