Monday photoblogging - some long-promised photos from Kabul

for some reason, i woke up extra early this morning, so i figured it was a good opportunity to post some of those photos i've been promising...

this was taken from the immigration arrival hall at kabul international airport...



Azerbaijan Airlines, Tupolev 154M

these were taken from the window of my room looking west... yes, that's pollution making the air look brown... unfortunately, it was one of the clear days... most of the time, you can't see those mountains at all... also, note the adobe hovels on the side of 'tv hill"...
