Kabul Afghanistan

Banda Kagahar (Lake Kagahar Dam)

Left the hotel in Kandahar the grounds were really nice, Roses and plenty of green grass. 318 miles to Kabul through more barren desert land, few nomads and camels, diesel stations about 60 miles apart. Few miles from Kabul a great thunderstorm, tried to photograph the lightening. Green hills all the way into Kabul. Lost Lee and Pat somewhere on the way. Drove round looking for somewhere to camp and ended up at Lake or Dam somewhere in the hills LD beginning to wobble on front wheels again. Heard they hope to get the Apollo up again today. The black market rate for Indian rupees to the pound is 32r twice as much as the official rate. Tomorrow will have a look round Kabul.
