Day Seventeen

Monday 4th October

It seems we will be stuck here in Lattakia Syria for the next few days at least until Friday.
The locals have been visiting us every day and giving us a lot of support and wishing us well.
We are being fed and watered very generously three times a day with very large portions, seldom can we finish what is served to us. It is very heartwarming.
Nothing much to do now but wait for negotiations at the highest level taking place before we can plan any further.
A delegation is put together which will go to Damascus later tonight to negotiate and have high level talks to try and smooth the way forward. George Galloway will be present at those negotiations including other high level officials from many other countries.
