I took this photo outside the Crowne Plaza hotel on the first day I was in Beirut, before they started the Civil War. Hamra street, the main street in Beirut and I´m stuck right here, right now 10:53AM on the 9th of May and it has been 3 days already, all you can see and hear is shooting and explosions. (I did took some pics while they are shooting but I´m not gonna upload them now). After heavy fighting the Hezbollah now control the street I am in. Oh my gosh, I wish you all can see what I see and hear what I hear right now, booming, shooting, yelling... Wish I had a video camera.
