Driving through Kabul
Very few buildings are in tact completly, most look like the one above. The most nice buildings you see are either new governmnt ones, OR they are the quality of the worst buildings you would see in the US.
There are men and children everywhere, not many women. The women I do see all cover their heads, about half wear burcas. Men talk while holding hands so you see lots of men holding hangs and embracing. Also homosexuality is common because women are not supposed to enjoy sex, so men go to men. I keep hearing about "Gay Thursdays" where that is the big day for this. Friday is their holy day, so I guess it's like our Saturdy night hook-up culture. Honestly, I don't really understand it yet.
These are blurry because we were driving down the road.

i want to see pics of you to prove you are actually there and not just hiding some place and downloading these pics from the internet. OR just cause I miss you and I want to see pics of you :)
I'm working on it. If someone has a camera, you know I won't hesitate to jump in front.
can't you start sneaking in the back of pictures taken by news crews or something? You're good at that.

Think you could find some flowers for May Day? (or does "may day" stand for something else in the military?)
