Another Busy Day

After the OCCP meeting we did some road recce. We drove around looking for a place in a picture, with the help of a description of the route given by a local national. It was hopeless, basically. Then we drove to Takht-i Rushtam, which isn't at all far away. We didn't visit the place this time, because this was road recce only, and I had to be back at the PO at 1100, because there were guests coming for lunch. I director of SIDA (Swedish international development agency) paid us a quick visit. After lunch we did another short patrol in Aybak, to the IEC (independent election committee), which turned out to be a complete waste of time. Then I had a haircut by a local barber, who we sometimes call in to groom us. To my surprise he was ok, actually. After the usual situation reports and briefings I went to the sauna and then to bed, unusually early. But I still didn't have time to go to the gym today.


We pay the exuberant sum of 5 USD for a haircut.


There's always enough time to play with Isaf.
