There’s often someone on FR who’s been somewhere or know firsthand about something. This time it’s me. Yes, I was a tourist to Pakistan.

Why? Because I was working in Kabul Afghanistan for several years, and Islamabad was in a new country for me, safer, cleaner, and a place to visit over a long weekend. As it was Easter weekend I attended a Protestant church service.

There’s still some British influence. Sunday is a day off. In Afghanistan the weekend was Friday and sometimes Saturday. Cars drive on left like in Britain.
