A road trip... a bit belated

Back in March I took a cool trip to Hazerajat.
Yeah, yeah.... I posted the Hazerajat photos but here are some from the road trip.

Here I am at a stop on the road for a photo op. In the US this would be called a scenic outlook.
Bandi Amir... the coolest lake in the world. I guess it has built up these walls around with minerals and now it is an elevated lake. Cool huh? I wonder if any geologist has studied this. You can find on google earth.

There are a million russian tanks from here to there anywhere you go in Afghanistan.


Me and the budda hole in Bamian. The buddist built it (duh) and the Talebs destroyed it and finally it fell. UNESCO is rebuilding it and there was some rumors of it being replaced by a lazer show. . . . I may have mentioned that before. What a serious waste of money, when there is no electricity for the people there. Nor water, and only food for some of the year.

This is Ophelie and the trucks. As we was rollin' down the road. Our trip was hard and long....
But our ass didn't hurt as much as this guys ass.
