They chatted for what seemed like a long with the two soldiers, perhaps devising a plan on how they were going to yank me out of this mess. Finally the military truck pulled up its front to my rear.

... photos showed us what the finished construction would look like, but all we could see were diggers, scaffolding, and men playing cricket. They were clearly the ex-pat workers from Asia having a day off from their toiling. But why were they off? Had we arrived in Bahrain on a public holiday?
