Getting TO/AROUND: The road going down south towards the Pakistan border. Check on the situation on the highways before you head out. Some years ago, the Kabul-Kandahar highway was notorious for trouble, not just with the taleban, but also with robbers around... People used to travel with a sizable security contingent. We ended up chartering an aircraft for our trip to Kandahar in 2002. It seems much more stable from the reports i heard on the last trip- 2006. The road is better to drive on, security was much improved, and for the entire stretch of the highway, you have mobile connectivity. At least thats what the adverts claimed...

Getting TO/AROUND: While you`re peering out of your airplanes window and trying to make a first impression of Afghanistan, The view of Kabul airport at first sight was a shocker. The sight of completely destroyed aircraft and helicopters just lying to the side, is quite bizarre... On the way back though, it was just a bizarre sight... I`m talking about the years 2002-03 here. The rubble has been subsequently removed and on the latest trip, there were few signs of it remaining.

This is a lovely page on Afghanistan. I'm glad to hear that on your last trip, you saw signs of recovery and stability. It's time for a country that has been through so much, to finally experience peace and prosperity. | Rinjani Wed Feb 6, 2008 10:12 UTC
