SOMEWHAT OF A ‘WILD GOOSE CHASE!”  Last evening my friend called and wondered if me and my camera could come to his place at 8:15 to be ready for departure at 8:30 pm to go with him and two friends of his to the airport.  We didn’t get left in the CNG until 9 pm.  I thought maybe he was meeting a friend at the airport, but soon realized it was to look at and take photos of the many lights in the city as it celebrates the ICC World Cup Cricket 2011.  It reminded me of driving around the countryside during the Christmas and enjoying the lights.  We arrived at the airport after at least an hour of travelling (waited for a train at two different locations).  Halim had seen an ad for the World Cup on TV that showed the airport with a magnicent light display, but obviously it was only to greet the teams and not there for the duration of the event!  He was disappointed.  We did stop at several places to take photos.

These are some of the lights that were along Airport Road.
