The rest of the day is waiting to wait again.  Our final destination once we board the plane will be Kygistan where we will spend 2-3 days inprocessing OEF.  Then we will fly to Kandahar Air Field and unpack our supplies and get them ready to move to our FOB (Forward Opperating Base) at Panjwaii, which is south of Kandahar.


As you can see, Kyrgystan is in the upper left in kind of a teal color and Afhghanistan in yellow next to Iran.  We will be close to the Pakistan border.  Please don't share the details.
