Moving on to Kabul

We woke up around 0430 to load our bags on palettes that will go onto our military flight to Kabul, then offload them to reload them again. Such is the military way I am accustomed to by now. We are scheduled to depart Manas around 1000 and should arrive in Kabul a couple hours later. Manas isn't all that exciting, landscape is fairly impressive though, flat to the north with huge mountains to the south, part of the Himalayas I believe.
Anyway, more to follow from Kabul and/or Herat, where I am scheduled to be.
