Again, a few pictures inside our house in Karachi
|
Me, getting ready to go out for the day |
|
another view of the buses |
|
a sideview of a beautifully decorated lorry |
|
a visit to a relative's house, and in between the tower blocks the children were playing cricket - everywhere we went children and adults alike actually played cricket |
|
Inside aunty's house - here the more traditional seating arrangements |
|
Ruby and Imran |
|
with Nadeem Mamu |
|
everywhere we went, tea and biscuits were offered |
|
outside the flats, getting ready to go to the seaside |
|
the advertising boards were just massive, but there are hardly any roadsigns - I got no idea who people find their way around |
|
I must have found the one of 10 or so signs in Karachi! |
|
Again, a game of cricket right in the middle of a road |

Now I've never seen that before, and I think it's a great idea - a countdown on the traffic light |

Here are some newly built towerblocks in Clifton, a posh part of town. I was told probably not many ordinary Pakistani's could afford to buy a flat here. |

Here is part of the beach - there was a big drop, and people were fishing. |
|
Nafees |
|
Ruby, Tooba, Cheeza |
|
Imran, Ruby, me (I think I might have mentioned before that Imran does not like to have his picture taken!) |
|
Group picture |
|
Ruby and Imran went for a ride on a camel. Unfortunately, by this time it was dark and the pictures did not come out nicely. |
|
Going into McDonalds - through the metal detector and bag search |
|
Inside, it looks just like any other MCdonalds anywhere in the world |

Flower deco on my han |

And another dinner party |
