I moved to the very expensive Holiday Inn. Boy it was worth every penny.
Went to meet some people at a Lonely Plonkers (Planet) reccommended site, for a visit to some events. Lonely Planet is really the pits as a guide book.
The first event involved sitting on a cold floor in a mosque listening to some local music. A most strange event. The pics are two other people at the same venue. The guy in red a "Sufi" known for enlightenment through hashish and growing their hair. His was about 10 feet long. The other guy was a local "hotshot".
Then back to the cafe for a BBQ of spicy chicken, which was sort of OK. There were some people I had met at the border, from Holland, so a friendly face is allways welcome.
Then we went to a "Sufi" event.
It was actually a large number of young and old men sitting on a cold floor smoking dope. After 3 hours a man stood up and played a saxaphone and someone in the "garden" outside was playing drums, rather ordinarily......and that was the major cultural event in Lahore !
Well that was the oddest Xmas I have ever spent.
