| Some more impression of Karachi's streets, all taken from the car window (I'm too lazy to Photoshop) |
 |
| Yep, the cats were a sorry sight. |

| We went to visit an amusement park called 'Hill Park' |
 |
| Unlike in the UK, where most parks etc would close with nightfall, in Karachi life starts once it gets dark (and the temparatures are more bearable.) |
 |
| Samina and her daughter Fatima |
 |
| Also in Hill Park was this wonderful view over Karachi - but as it is very dark, the picture is pretty much useless. But the view was beautiful - take it from me. The fencing around the verh high viewing platform was all broken though - I can only image what UK Health and Safety would make of this sight. |
 |
| A visit to the PAF (Pakistani Air Force) museum which was very different from what I know as museum - it had exhibits, but also a very large park, an amusement and people were having picnics and barbeques on the lawns. |
 |
| Fatima, Ruby and Nafees |

 |
| Imran wanted me to take pictures of the guns showcasted here - it doesn't mean anything to me, but he could name tham all due to a game he is playing on the Xbox |
 |
| The perfect end to the day was a visit to a restaurant called 'BBQ tonite' - the whole building is actually the restaurant It is situated in an area of Karachi called Clifton which is by the seaside and a posh area - I don't think the average ordinary citizen could afford to go to a restaurant like this. |

| Nafees' brother Zubair who was our driver of the day (well, every day really). I guess if you can drive in Karachi you can drive anywhere. |

| Imran and me ordered Steak and Chips which was the best steak I have ever eaten!! |

 |
| The roundabouts (and there are plenty) ususally had some kind of statue in the middle. |
