This year it seems that Spring has not come to Lahore. From Winters, we are straight into Summer. Still, the government is trying to celebrate the advent of Spring and provide entertainment for terrorism-weary Lahories in the form of the Lahore Festival, programmes for children, a dog show, a cricket match between lawmakers and film actors, another cricket match for the visually impaired, flower-arranging contests, poetry readings, and face-painting, heena contests and decorating the Lahore Canal from Mall Road to jail Road. At night one can see a number of illuminated boats representing cultural themes, fountains and flower courts.
