Pics of mountain scenery in a place called Gaazi, also pics of our boat tour at Tarbela Dam. The cost of a 1 hour boat ride was 2,000 Pakistani Rupees so $7 USD...talk about affordable. Our guide was so damn nice he even let all 6 of us steer the boat so I gave a him a little extra

JazakAllah brother! Flight was smooth sailing, Alhamdulillah. Pakistan was dope as hell. I went after 25 years, lol, loonggggggg overdue trip. Definitely right about the nature. A lot of beautiful mountain ranges in & around Haripur where I was. The people- very friendly, curious and accommodating. Just about every shop where we went into the staff offered kava, water and snacks. Yes, everything here is very cheap & affordable. I was there for just under 3 weeks. JazakAllah, may Allah protect you as well & keep you in good health, brother.

Thinking of going to NYC for Easter but bringing the youngins along (both under 6)
Is NYC suitable for them? I haven't been in over 10 years. Media tells me crime rate have gone up. My concern would be just bringing young kids. Also don't know if there is even much for young kids to do/see other than the big toy stores
Another choice, may be Boston cause I've never been before.

Yeap - we actually got out of there today - I have to leave for Nola tomorrow.
Some areas already started - the worst yet to come - some places are looking at 37”.
I was there for 3 days.

Going back to London in mid January., thinking about going to some other European cities while I’m there
Anyone have any places that would still be nice in the winter? I don’t really mind snow

Brussels is a good winter spot in Europe. Can’t really go wrong with Amsterdam either.

You'll be fine. NYC is very suitable for them. Media has a tendency to overexaggerate their stories. I'm not saying NYC doesn't have crime because we definitely do but it's not as bad as the media would want you to believe. If you come through, let me know I'll give you a bunch of recommendations.
And about Boston- you'll absolutely love it there. Small city with a lot going on, beautiful streets & Colonial architecture. I've been like 6 times and can never get enough. I got recommendations for Boston as well, let me know

Haven't been to any of those but I'm told Prague is beautiful. Switzerland is outrageously expensive.

Has anyone been to Cologne Germany and seen the cathedral? Or the other ones in Germany? That would be cool but i wonder if it’s underwhelming in person or if it’s the opposite actually
