I cached in Kandahar

KAF meeting, 26 July
That attended log was my 199th log and K.O.D.A in the GHAN was my 200st find.
I can say "I cached in Kandahar, Afghanistan".

Caching on a military base in a war zone is not quite the same as caching at home. It is a lot more stressing as you dont want to get muggled by military police because you will have a lot of explaining to do about that hidden box. With scorpions and camel spider being part of the local fauna, putting your hand in dark nooks and crannies is also rather stressful. But its very rewarding when you do find the cache, but some required to go under the cover of darkness and "stray from the beaten path" ... I left those for my next trip.

Here's me trying to get an interesting shot for a Travel Bug ("Gänseliesel-Race" Purzelchens "RammRüpel")







And this is me at K.O.D.A in the GHAN, my 200st find, not every day I go caching with a sidearm ...
Dang wearing that floppy looks silly from this viewpoint... hey, it was pitchdark and no time to check your attire :-)
plus flashphotography attracks attention in this neighborghood.

Notice the particles of dust flairing up ...
VERY dusty.




This is at SArges Fortress of solitude, trying to get a good picture for the Ambiorix (G70) TB logs.

Back in Belgium

Got home 2 weeks ago from a brief adventure and havent done any caching since. We headed out to Hoeselt last week for the new multi and loads of trads but on the way the car started acting up and we turned back home. a few days alter we had it towed to the mechanic who had an expensive sounding diagnose for us : turbo dead, catalyst (?) dead ... ouch

Anyway, today we went for a walk in De Kevie. I placed a new container and logbook in Kevie 2 : Naald in een ... uhm? and in Kevie 1 : Groot Meers v1.1 I dropped a coin (Black-Veined Butterfly Geocoin) I retrieved from a cache in Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan.

This coin has moved 10569.1km in 3 cache moves ...
how fast is that!!!

The car should be back this week, fingers crossed...
