96) SATURDAY, 1 OCTOBER 1977 : 0KMS. - RAWALPINDI
Went to check mails at the Poste Restante and got 2 letters, one from LEX(Marinsa) and one from MU(Narong) but nothing from home. It should be good having no news from home because it showed that no one was worried or too concerned about our travelling adventure. It was possible that I failed to give them the address of the Poste Restante in RAWALPINDI.

I
was very excited today having learnt from MU and LEX’s letters that RUDI (Rudolph Bergmeister), our friend in STUTTGART would follow our trails soon, with another friend -MARTIN, by driving his Mercedes and trailer to INDIA and Bangkok, by taking the
sea route from MADRAS to PENANG. They were scheduled to travel from Germany
on October 1, '77 to arrive MADRAS by November 15, '77, expecting to meet with us in late October '77 in NEW DELHI.
It was really good news that we were looking forward to
with much excitement.

In
the afternoon we visited the modern capital of PAKISTAN, ISLAMABAD - about 10
km away from RAWALPINDI. I saw stalls selling
wrapped betel nuts ready for chewing. It seemed to be common for both men and women here having beautiful red lips due to chewing the wrapped betel nuts.
