News from Karachi

M has made it safe to Karachi and is settling in. He got in around 3 am and his friend came to pick him and take him to his parents' house. He got there around 4 am, and his mom answered the door. She was not too surprised, because she was suspicious that his friend had called the house so early in the morning to ask her to open the door. Then his youngest sister came to the door. At first she didn't realize who he was, then when it set in, she started screaming! Of course that woke the whole house up and his dad came running down stairs ready to defend them from robbers! He nearly gave everyone a heart attack!

So far he has been meeting old friends and family and I think he is having a good time. We had a little chat on the im, which I thought was pretty funny, so I am putting it here. *Warning, mildly bad language, but really funny*

M says: so we played snooker for 2 hrs, 90 ruppees
M says: 3 biryanis and 3 lassis 110 rupees
M: the shits
M says: priceless
S says: HAHAHAHA
S says: i told you not to eat street food. did you eat street food?
M says: some damn good biryani
S says: was it worth it?
M says:yep

More updates to come later, he still has not gotten into contact with Yasir to tell him he is coming to the wedding. I can't wait to hear that conversation!
