It was a weird Saturday, after working we agreed to meet at the office and decide where to go… It took us one hour and lots of phonecalls to make a list of possibilities (as You might see at picture below, there is not at all many, Karachi is quite a boring city!).
…btw, its Emad, he is not frustrated (not too much), just posing…
We have picked to go to the beach and than watch a movie. I am adding pictures from the beach, it was surelly beautiful, in my kind of perception. For some others it could have been only lots of people on a piece of sand with the colour and softness of concrete. 
Some say that it is a result of a eco disaster – oil tank crash – that happened in 2003 (others claim it was like this always).
It was amazing to see all the sellers of: roasted corn, bread, sweets, cigarettes, icecream. As attraction You can buy: ride on camel or horse, that a guy takes out a snake out of his sack and lets it dance by flute… In fact if You pay enough, he will let the cobra fight a weasel, but thats a dirty business, because the snake or the weasel dies in it… Dirty business.
And I have finally been flying a kite… In the city of wind, the temptation to fly a kite was huge, but I couldnt find it anywhere. And now there it is – sellers with a plastic aeroplane made out of trash. I have to admit that the design is amazingly simple and efficient.
