Say it Isn't SO!

I'm trapped in Kabul.

Two weeks ago I submitted my passport to get my Afghan visa renewed. Five days ago my visa expired. Today I discovered that the foreign ministry has been closed all week and will continue to be closed all week, so I won't be getting my visa before my plane leaves on December 10th for Islamabad.

And I worried I'd be delayed by the weather.

Hopefully I'll get the visa by the beginning of next week and be off to Islamabad by the 14th. My plane leaves for California on the 20th. Given the vagaries of Kabul weather, which shuts down the airport at the slightest drizzle, this schedule seems to be cutting it awfully fine.
