No-one to meet me (as promised) at the airport, and I had forgotten the guest house address. Luckily, the travel agents took pity on me and let me use their internet. Several calls, and walks back and forth outside and I finally found the driver and security guard.
The guesthouse - Le Monde - is in the center of Kabul, built behind high walls around a green garden, very tranquil. Completely cut off from the bustle and poverty outside.
My room smells of cat wee.

is it the same smell you are confronted with on the Tokyo trains every once in awhile....what is that????
My tiny garden smells the same, too! You wouldn't miss Kabul much after you come back since you get to smell the same odor in your very neighbourhood!!
Mam J: here it is the real thing, cats sneaking into rooms that they mistake for bathroom. I think.
Mayumi: mine, too! Home away from home!
