Our ride parked.

We had taken a break of 75 minutes here. It was 01:45 am. We had two options here, either to move ahead till Dir or stay at Malakand. We decided to move ahead as day would have been wasted if we would stay at Malakand. So, Col.Zia informed Malakand Officials that we are moving ahead.
Here, I will close the Day-1 formally.

Lets Start Day-2
By driving whole night with rain all around and curvey hilly roads, we managed to reach TDCP Panahkot, Dir at 04:30 AM. We crossed countless check posts. Road was almost empty with very rare traffic of Chicken carrying dallaas. It was most enjoyable ride in the night at unknown roads of Dir, KPK. No security issues.
Look at the faces with tiredness and eyes full of NEEND.....

Rooms of TDCP Panahkot, Dir.

We offered Fajar Prayer and went to beds for a quick nap.
Woke up at 09:00 am, got ready and at 10:00 am, we were at Brigade Command Panahkot, Dir where Brig.Rao was our host. Brig. Rao Aamir is the course mate of Col.Zia. Without the help and thorough support of Brig.Rao, we could not have managed a smooth trip as we all were new to the area. He was a remarkable host and planned ALL things well before our arrival. He did all to comfort us during our whole trip from Dir to Kumrat to Dir. We will remember his great hospitality for a long long time.
We also met there with Col.Farrukh. He is a Pakwheeler . And my friends you know that what a PAKWHEELER is !!
