Day 2 Lahore
A day of visiting - another day of driving - the driving is better than a carnival ride. Of course all the relatives that we visit want us to stay or atleast feed us very well. We are all eating quite heartily and having no ill effects. Of course it is still bottled water all around. The ladies went fabric shopping and the boys and I let loose on the market. I made my first Pakistani purchase - 7up - 50 rupees. I am now ready to barter at the market - not!!
Of course everyone stares at the white guy a kids with long hair - too long - but I just brave forward and enjoy the market. I have yet to find something that I really want to buy - but that will come.
That evening I am told we need to go out to the tailor (9:00pm) - ok - I join along in the small car - Aisha/Me/Nanny in the back - Driver in front and grandma with small child in the passenger seat - belts.carseat not required. The tailor is busy so we will return another day - Mean time the suggestion of snack enters and we stop at the tikka stand for a late night takeout snack of roti and tikka (flame broiled savory meat on a stick).
