Islamabad to Gwadar (spectra)

spectra · 18-08-2008, 04:34 PM

Ingrediants:

A honda City Vario

4 idiots

A road map of pakistan
(dont leave home without it on a 5000 kms round trip

)

And off we went on our journey from Islamabad to Karachi and then to Gwadar to participate in Freedom Rally.

First road to hit, THE MOTORWAY, up to kalar Kahar

Had tea at kalar kahar

Check the poonds on sugar

Introduction of the fellow travellers who are my colleagues in telenor.

My old friend Omar Nawaz. he is Manager Accounts and looks after Accounts Closing section.

The bhaand who became a good friend after this trip

Faisal Shamim. He is Accounts Executive and looks after Fixed Assets and inventory section.

One and only Shah Fahad sahab. He works in Financial reporting section of Accounts Department in telenor.

While having tea, we had a brain wave to explore another part of Pakistan i.e. Mianwali Muzaffargarh road. For that we exited frm Kalar Kahar and went towards Jauharabad, Khushab, Athara Hazari and ultimately Jhang. The roda passes through hills of Katha and then a desert which is an experience of its own. So much variety within 300 kms is not available elsewhere.
