Well I made it back.. been a little busy but here are some photos.
The air in Kabul is very thin (2000m above sea level) and also 20% of the air is human excrement. I did the fitness test at camp and i am still coughing up phlem. ![]() |

Kabul is in a valley and is on both sides of the mountain where the Taliban used to be based. In some photos you can see a mosque. Opposite that mosque is a football stadium, where they used to behead people not so very long ago...

At the top of the hill (its know as TV hill as all the antennas are up there) there is a small police station. The young policeman who approached us HAD to hold my hand in the photo... the expression on his face was classic!

Island, I don't mean to sound ignorant but I would like to know more about your trip to this place. What were you doing there and how long were you there? Just a vacation? Myself and several others viewing your pictures want to hear more..... if you want to tell.

will tell more... was hoping to do a trip report (mini) but work is huge is right now. That's why I have been so quiet on the forums.. off to Egypt on Sunday for a long awaited vacation.. will give you an insight when I get back (10 April). It may be something you will be interested in when you finish your military service

I went over for work.. I work in the risk management business and we have a couple of projects over there. Its really sad to see the state of the Afghani people. They are so poor and still seem to live in fear. It is amazing to see how happy the children where though, still smiling and running around.. and they have nothing. |
