South C Dental Clinic

I have been staying in our South C facility since the Hyodo's left for the states. It is close to work and I drive some new staff to work who are residents here.

There are some flowers and bushes to separate the yard from the road.

The style of our clinic is quite interesting. We had it painted just before the picture. This was one of the first buildings to be constructed in this part of town in the 70's.

This also shows just a little of the neighborhood. It is considered an upper-middle class part of town. Most people in the U.S. wouldn't consider it to be, but for the locals this area is somewhat upscale and few can afford to live here. Many Indians and Arabs are our neighbors. Just down the street is an odd mixture of religious establishments. There is an Islamic mosque and school, next to a Seventh Day Adventist church, next to a Baptist church.

This is the common area that connect the main building to the servants quarters.

Inside the main building we have 3 dental stations set up. We are still working on paperwork before everything is finalized and in use.

Here is my bedroom - two beds, but I'm they only one there for now. It's quite comfortable save for the mosquitoes. Those little buggers... I installed this mosquito net, but it's not very big - I have bites all over my hands and arms. They seem to like the hands and feet.

Yes, that's right, I know how to cook some of the finest meals. This one is called "arrowroot de charcoal". To get this dish to turn out just right the master chef must leave it unattended for several hours. I added a little extra presentational flair to my dish by leaving the property for work to allow the smoke to billow out of the windows. That was the signal to let the grounds keeper know that it was ready.

Up the wall, upside down on the ceiling, and hard to catch. These little guys are very fast. I always was fascinated with geckos as a kid - now I've finally got to see them. They come in the windows sometimes if they are left open.
