In this Friday, Nov. 14, 2014 photo, friendly characters that looklike Jerry the mouse from Tom and Jerry, left, and Minnie Mouse welcome visitors at Afghanistan's first amusement park called City Park in Kabul. Excitement builds in the queue forming behind the barbed-wire security fence outside the park as children in bright clothes clutch their parents' hands and hop from foot to foot in anticipation of the pleasures waiting behind the high concrete blast walls. For the thousands of families who have visited there since it opened during a national religious holiday weekend in October, it is a rare escape from lives blighted by war, death and misery.
