Gheelle.T Posted November 12, 2008 Yup that's that only Taleex I know...Not even more so the xaafad, but the Hotel/Baar Taleex... [big Grin] Eeddo, I used to be a bartender in Taleex, and there used to be few female customers there Intaqfurulaah...Jokes aside though, walhi I hail few block (maybe 1/2 a mile) down the road. Anyone here from shineemo Shuun? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted November 13, 2008 Geelle, sawirkaan hoos ka muuqdo ma xasuusan kartaa. Meeshaa sheegeysid kasoo qaaday waa aan Xamar ku noqday. I guess waxaa daganayd jidka dheer Hoteel Taleex iridiisa ku aadanaa oo ku dhici jiray Shaneemo Shuun, soo agmari iyo hormari jirayna darbiyada Carwada iyo Isteeshinka Hodan. Maxaa guryo gaal oo eeyo waa weyn leh meeshaas ku yaalo dhagaxaan ku tuurnay every other Jimco, anagoo ciyaalkeena ka nimid barxadda Warshadda Kookada oo xaafadeena u noqoneyno.

Jacaylbaro Posted November 13, 2008 I once enrolled to a Karate school inside the Carwada ... i remember the short, dark and strong guy who was the teacher. He was so scary inkaari ku dhacday ,,, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant Posted November 13, 2008 Hi Nuune- Hi Ghelle.T, I do know about Jalle Hersi. So far, he has been the only one of my acquaintences I have been able to relocate. I finally found the pictures I took in Jilib in 1966. I e-mailed admin to ask if he wanted them, but have not received a reply. The stock photos for profit link does not work. Would folks here like to see them, and how does one post? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grant Posted November 13, 2008 Here's a first installment. I would really like to have them in some permanent place, all together. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gheelle.T Posted November 13, 2008 Thanks Grant for posting the pics, they look good indeed. Just wonder how Jilib would look today mmm. Grant talk to the admin and see if he can actually embed your collection of picture(from Somalia) in this site. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant Posted November 13, 2008 These shots are of opposite ends of main street. The paved road from Kismayu ended about where the first photo was taken. That is the minaret of the mosque on the left. At that time, Jilib was the admistrative center for Juubbada Hoose. Gedo had not yet been created. The white building was built by the Italians and was the District Commisioner's office on the left and the post office on the right. You see a couple power poles. By 1967 we had intermittant electricity for a couple of hours in the evening, from a gas generator next to the DC's office, but only at that end of town.
