Nice pictures! I never did realize that you were snapping away during the entire trip

This definitely was an experience to cherish. Thanks for the KaAS (particularly Cheers) for including me on this trip.

@Xeo

Assalam Alaikum Zia Bhai.

Thanks for the appreciation. Besides photography, there were certain other activities unnoticed by you as you were only thinking of stars and planets

Yes I cannot stop encouraging @Cheers for organising such an event and introducing me to so many great people.

Best wishes!

@RZ

I didnt know if any such active society would be there in Pakistan, doing great work! can you shed some light on your activities and what is the inspiration that keeps the group active, what do u look for?

Assalam Alaikum.

Brother. I am really surprised to see Pakistanis doing wonders on their own-- without having any support or assistance. My response to your question about inspiration is limited to one word only:

ٹھرک when there is tharak, it makes everything possible.

For comparatively serious answers, I will request Zain Bhai aka @Cheers to respond. In the meanwhile you may love to read the following thread:

The rocky Balochistan is so romantic.

We stopped for Namaz-e-Asr at Veendar and then proceed.

Also bought some wooden sticks as a safety measure to carry in a place where you expect snakes and scorpions.

Dear PakWheelers,
Assalam-O-Alaykum,

It was a wonderful trip for me too. It never felt like we were meeting for the first time. Rehan, Zia, Amir and all others are really friendly and nice people.

I would also like to explain a little bit about KArachi Astronomers' Society here. We are a team of some passionate sky lovers. We are not looking FOR something rather we are looking AT the wonderful universe that All Mighty ALLAH has created.

I will iterate that it was a wonderful experience with PakWheelers.

Imran

Wa Alaikum Assalam.

Thank you Imran. Yes the enjoyment was multiplied as we had a person like you around.

Insha Allah we will have similar and more organised events regularly.

As most part of both RCD and Coastal Highways is without cellular phone coverage, our communication device between the two vehicles was a set of Motorola:
