Dubai

On my way back to the states from my last trip to Afghanistan I got to stop in Dubai for a quick layover.  Brad Kirr, the man behind the amazing Tashkeel ramp at the Tashkeel Hub in Dubai, was awesome enough to host me for a few days while I was there.  I got a few runs in on the ramp, although I nearly fainted in about 15 minutes from heat exhaustion.

I went out and about and did the tourist thing while I was there - these are a few of the shots from my short trip around Dubai.

Landed in Kabul

Sorry for the delay since I started the blog - internet has been limited, but from now on I should have steady daily internet access. I landed safely in Kabul about a week ago, and things have already been pretty eye opening.  The trip in was hectic to say the least - nothing more fun than traveling for two days straight and living off of airline food.  I'm attaching some photos of the airports I visited on the way, and some pictures of my first sights in Kabul.  More to come later for sure.
