Journalists at work, late into the night in Aleppo…

It’s 12:40 a.m. Sunday, and many of us are blogging away in beautiful Aleppo, Syria… Here’s a quick snapshot of what’s going on around me right now. It’s been like this for hours now, with everyone finding his or her way to this unofficial “newsroom” off the lobby after they had dinner at the market, or on the roof of this stunning hotel. I’ve said it before, but it bears repeating: I’m so proud of my gang.

Some in our group, blogging through midnight Saturday and into early Sunday in the city of Aleppo, Syria. Everyone is staring into his or her laptop except Sean, who's snuggled up beside me there on the right, watching Beetlejuice on TV (translated into Arabic). Once again, it's a satisfying moment for me.
