Avari Lahore

... up when I walked past them and one of their group came forward and asked me if I was a foreigner. I said yes and soon there was a line up to get a picture taken with the foreigner. In the time I spent in Lahore I saw only one other Westerner in the city so it's not surprising that this sort of thing would happen. At the end of the photo session the young man who had originally approached me ran up as I was walking away and said, 'I very happy meeting. Take. Take.' He handed ...

... places on my first visit to Lahore so we spent the next few days just enjoying the city - escaping the people in the many parks and zoo, and finding different places for food and chai. There was a small fair in one of the parks we went to and I took an amused M on the first fairground ride in his life - I think he just thought they were for kids. I wore a mixture of local dress and western dress but M wore only western ...

... check the bonnet, check the engine, check us and our driver -- and then the long drive to the front door, passing guard after armed guard. I stopped counting at fifty. The were probably close to a hundred, all around. We passed these magnificent doormen , and then into the equally magnificent reception hall. Dinner was wonderful, of course, as was the ...

... that is given to the poor. I also visited on a Thursday afternoon when they have Qawwali music (Islamic devotional singing) in the basement. Various groups play while men collect money and spray rose water into the watching crowd as we sit in organized rows on the floor. The Royal Baths Mosque of Wazir Khan - the most beautiful of all the Lahore mosques with amazing decoration. Jehangir's tomb, tomb of Asif Khan, and Nur Jahan's tomb - beautiful mosaics and ...

... enough of flirting around with the idea of illness and decided to go on holiday for an unspecified time period. Ever since arriving in this awfully dirty country about ten days ago, our stomachs have been struggling to cope with the contaminated water - which we stupidly thought it would be alright to drink - and the sloppy grub that is dished out under the least hygienic circumstances imaginable. You never see a Pakistani wash his hands, whether he be a gourmet chef or ...

... a few other travelers on the steps of a tomb undoubtedly reserved for honored guests. Two drummers pounded out thunderously chaotic beats as the seated mob whooped their approval and the occasional devotees shook their heads vigorously, while a few others men did a sort of mock belly dance. A heavy cloud of hashish fogs the crowd as blunts are passed around freely. One drummer steps forward and makes way through the front of the congregation, as it were, and a circle is ...

... not unlike a poor man's Vermeer (with Palsy), I stepped past the doorman to my awaiting air-conditioned car and as I sat down noticed the porter was sporting a machine gun -- an accessory that seems all the rage in these parts. My driver/so-called guide had very little idea about anything I was seeing and more or less ******* his pajamas every time I asked a question. He did however know how to drive a car --though little else. "Sir, what is that building were ...

... me staring, stop and return. Across the maiden I see my boy -- he honks and I -- I can breathe again. <br><br>We speed past rickshaws burgeoning with people and garishly festooned lorries barreling at top speed, their horns temporally blotting out the crackling Bollywood music on the radio. A family of four on a motorcycle whizzes across our headlights --the infant holding on to her mother's arm looks back. <br><br>Now as we enter the city things take a gentler turn.
