Travel from the Embassy in Baghdad to Kirkuk was an ordeal. First you meet the shuttle van that takes you to the Helo Pad (helicopter). We flew on a larger helicopter from the Embassy to Baghdad airport where we boarded a regular airplane for the flight to Erbil.
After arriving at the Erbil airport we then took Huey helicopters into Kirkuk...okay, now I want to be a helicopter pilot! LOVED the Huey, ...flying in sideways with the doors wide open. That was a bit exhilarating!
Long travel day that started at 5 a.m and ended about 6 in the evening...glad to finally be here.
