I awoke to sunny day, but cold morning. Went outside into the court yard and introduced myself to the 2 guards. And then another man came out, then another, until there were 7 of them all huddled around me, the new guy they had herd so much about. “Mr. Kevin” I am now known to them. I joked with them, and tried to pronounce their names -making them all laugh. This was good and it was nice to get off on the right foot with them all. The day was filled with lots more briefings – I am going to be one very busy person!!! I supervise two Afghan Project Managers who both have between 8 and 12 staff under them. Anne, Head of Mission took me out for lunch to only one of three ‘validated’ restaurants where we can eat. Of course leaving the house there are numerous security procedures to go through. Must use the cell phone to describe where and when we go. The restaurant was surrounded by police, thus it was approved to go to...weird! We have no internet in the house, nor reliable electricity!

Who would have thought that going out to eat would have all those precautions. One more example of something we take for granted here.
Did you happen to go eat at L'Atmosphere Restaurant or Latmo for short???
