OPTIONS ON GOING TO BAGHDAD.
< Older | Newer >


There are a few ways to go to Baghdad.



1. Bus.

2. Colective Taxi.

3. Private Taxi.

4. Go with friend I would meet in the north, but lives in Baghdad.

5. I suppose I could fly, but not an option.

6. Military Apache Helicopter (In my dreams only)

7. Caravan of Military Hummers.

8. Caravan of UN and Granola for lunch bunch, save the world types.



My choices are only:

1. Bus.

2. Colective Taxi.

3. Private Taxi.

4. Go with friend I would meet in the north, but lives in Baghdad.

The others are too dangerous. Well, not the Apache.

But I am dreaming there.



I will probably opt on the collective Taxi. This is so far the most normal way.

You walk up to "Garage" and say. Baghdad.

A guy sets you up in a taxi that almost full.

You decide on the price, and leave.



THE NOT NORMALCONCEPT

I will try to pay the taxi to take me directly to the next hotel in Baghdad.

I am telling you about a future trip in a week or less or more.

Tikrit is on the way. I would love to stop in Tikrit, but that is an organizational headache.

I may or may not get Tikrit done.
