About to resume the last leg of this road

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:05:45 +0500 #222

...While leaving the green deserted road behind us

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:07:50 +0500 #223

A rocking Stone curve and.....

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:09:05 +0500 #224

....And then we saw the first view of the Jahalr lake from above its ground level

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:12:39 +0500 #225

Now we have to descend down to some extent to reach the Lake

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:15:11 +0500 #226

So, it is Jahlar Lake of Soon Valley

Beside the road on our right side

Jahlar Village: it is about 14km from Kathwai Mor and about 6km from Suraki More. Further it takes aother 24km to reach Naushera. It have two routes one from which we have came and other one is from Koradhi side. I'll show the pictures of that diversion in my way back to Kathwai and then from Koradhi side.

A familiar bad smell of Poultry will welcome you after reaching there. Not a good sign for Jahlar lake and for visitors:(

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:24:45 +0500 #230

In addition to poultry the water of lake wasn't seem pleasant look:(

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:26:59 +0500 #231

First impression was not good but REMEMBER.....Beauty lies into the eyes of a viewers..what does it mean!

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:28:49 +0500 #232

I'll try to explain it in next few posts while in chit chatting....

Some extraneous variables make our first impressions and if we can't do our analysis then 1st impression may become the last impression.

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:34:33 +0500 #234

In my case, the extraneous variables were

Intensive sun light(not known by us in first sight)
Bad smell of Poultry
Polluted water of Lake
Very damaged part of the road near the village
Tiredness of kids at he moment

These may be different in different case but do an analysis before making a final decision

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:36:22 +0500 #235

You know we spend a fair time after our first impression...why;)
Last part of the lake

A Tube well in the neighbor hood of Lake

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:45:52 +0500 #238

After taking a half circular path beside the road we felt this place much better to spent some time here

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:47:17 +0500 #239

Road still making its way to a far end town of the valley

emmaar (emmaar) 2013-03-27 12:48:50 +0500 #240

Time for some shots and for some posing here
