Our sister metroblog Islamabad has a ‘Guess-the-Place’ post: Islamabad – 850 Km Away?? published by A for [Pine]Apple yesterday. The post has a picture that the IMB visitors had to deduce. I am pasting below the post here for LMB’s participation as well..

Islamabad – 850 Km Away??

Can you guess this place???

Wild Shots??

Image Courtesy’s later :)

Though I wanted to provide details of the picture on IMB but later I decided to blog the information here on LMB because this piece of art has more connection to Lahore than any other metrocity of Pakistan! :)

Why?

Make a wild guess and then continue reading for the detailed answers to your presumptions: :)

Can you guess this place???

I think I can :)

The pic was taken at khunjerab Pass, they were actually on there way to Khunjerab Top which is actually 887km from islamabad. These are 3 friends Ahmad, Adnan and Haroon. Haroon was taking pic and the 2 persons u see are Ahmed and Adnan. They are all school friends who went on a trip together from their busy schedules from offices (which they all hardly get a time off from) :) cuz they all are working as responsible positions at good places. There is a famous school in lahore Crescen Model, they were all together there. One of them, Adnan, is Telecom Engineer and works in Mobilink. Ahmad is Mechanical Engineer in Wartsila. While Haroon is working as Sr. Quality Assurance Engineer with Mondo (formerly known as Pi-Sigma/Geopaq, Lahore.)

They 3 went just a week ago for a week’s trip, so obvioiusly they didn’t had much time. So it was all so much interesting :) with the short time and the car they had :) .. yup the one you see in the pic is the one they went so far on… The poor thing is Ford Fiesta 1987 model. So it was a dual adventure having that car and the short time they had. 20 years old but still, the car didn’t give them a single problem at all. So they were 3 people on bichari Fiesta. :) They drove 3000 kilmeters in a week’s time. Plus, it was not an expensive trip. Just Rs. 10,000 per head including car’s maintenance.

So, Lahore Metblog wins at guessing, where’s our gift ;)
