| Well I hit the ground running out here and I must say I got my work cut out for me! I would have it no other way though. It will make the time go by so much faster. I'm in Kabul Afghanistan and that puts me 10.5 hours ahead of EST. It's been rainy and cold here, but not too bad. I got a bunch of new arrival briefs and they showed some videos and Malaria is a big problem here. It's expected that at least 40% of the local population has it among other things. The average life span of an Afghan is 44 years. Only a small portion of the population can read or write and war is just away of life out here. Right now I'm on a NATO base so I work and eat with people from all over the globe. I actually really like that. Looks like the video blog isn't going to work. I just don't have the band width to up load video files, so I will work on writing them with some pictures. ~ Matt |
