If you have ever watched the BBC's Top Gear you may be familiar with the opening credits of that show, which feature silhouettes of the three co-hosts. I can't help but be reminded of that every time I have a look at this image. Maybe it's further enhanced by my experiences with the hilarity that inevitably ensues when these 3 fine gentlemen get together...

A bar that lives up to its name.
(I just found a review of this place that somehow managed to end with 'it motivated me to start eating more beef.' Right...)

From the July 4th Party I spun at. Sorry for the fuzzy shot but I was spinning and people were dancing with sparklers, I still thought it was cool enough to look at
Looking beyond the rooftops and out towards the moorlands. Cold December afternoon. St Edwards church tower in foreground.

Karachiites have learned to live without necessities, sleeping under the sky on the rooftops has become a norm. You would be surrounded by the lights all around (huge lights of National Stadium & Office lights of SSGC) but this country doesn't really believe in providing lower middle class with enough electricity so they can sleep sound at night to get back to 9 to 5 jobs.
This is the picture taken on rooftop of residential building at the load shedding time. I am sure you can imagine the frustration one goes through when load shedding is only targeted towards the people who would have two fans and two bulbs (generally are replaced by energy savers to avoid unaffordable bills) So the reality is absolutely opposite to what you see in the picture.

Week 4 Image 2 selfie project
Hanging out the rooftop as the sun flutters through the treetops...a great place for solitude, just watching the world go by...pretty awesome.
In Europe the rooftop is usualy closed for public and only accesible to people that need to replace something. Not in Africa. Go to the 22th floor of the Findeco House, walk around and spot the little 3 steps high stair. That allows you to climb on top of the building where it's a maze of rusty satelite disks, wires and ventilators.

These lucky guys had access to a higher rooftop than I did. I caught them taking pictures of the Empire State Building during sunset.
