Foot Patrol

Today we had a foot patrol in Aybak together with the ANP. Unfortunately I wasn't able to go along, because I went from the OCCP-meeting to see the chief of police. Those who went on foot patrol were quite happy about it, despite the fact that it was very hot outside again today. Isaf the puppy went along and she walked with the guys all the way. She was quite exhausted when they came back to the PO. Another meeting that was scheduled for the afternoon was cancelled, so I had the opportunity to clean my quarters. I would have gone to the gym, too, but I have been feeling like I'm coming down with a cold the past few days. There was a report of a serious traffic accident involving a bus on the road to Kabul. I'm not in the least surprised - the bus drivers drive like madmen. But there are worse things than accidents in Afghanistan, make no mistake.

The temperature on the sundeck was 36 degerees today. In the shade.
