I am back at my hotel now and I have the balcony door open. I can hear heavy machine gun fire outside but it isn’t close, its in the next neighborhood. My hotel is located in Achrafieh which is on the edge of the Christian area where everything is pretty much normal. The lobby is filled with tourists who I am guessing are freaked out with whats going on outside. This might sound weird but the machine gun fire outside is pretty soothing. I guess hearing the gun fire in the distance kinda keeps me in the loop with whats going on and the fact thats its not close by is assuring.

I’ve heard the soound of the bullets zing, and believe me, there is something telling in the sound!
can you film what you see or take a picture ? … we would love to see what’s goiong on around you.
You don’t expect him to poke his head out of the window to see what’s going on, do you? That’s almost like suicide.
Any news on any bullet victims? Or is it only injuries? [Hope it’s neither but it’s probably unlikely]
I did record a video but the size is too big to upload with the hotels crappy connection. i can describe it though.
I was sitting outside on the balcony until i froze mya ss off
Times like this I wish I had my Nikon so I could take some decent night shots. If I was properly dressed with a jacket or jumper i would walk down the street to where the army have blocked the streets so i could take some pics
