The fog that has enveloped beautiful Islamabad brings with it a certain kind of gloom. Accompanied with the bone-chilling cold that has everyone layering up, it adds an air of mystery to the mundane lives of residents. It gives a feeling of waking up in the clouds. It felt as if we’re all Jack from Jack and the Beanstalk and are stuck in the castle indefinitely.

As dreamy as it may look, the fog tends to disrupt traffic and flight schedules and this was no different. The weather tends to have a dramatic effect on the general mood od the people and this gloomy weather brought with it despondency. The complete absence of the sun in the morning and the darkness infused with fog at night was reminiscent of the set of Twilight.
