As usual I have a lot more pictures from Beirut and our two trips than I used in my other posts. And it’s so hard to just delete them. I find that they still tell a pretty good story about life in the Lebanon. You can get an impression of what’s happening besides the typical sightseeing program. And there is a lot going on. There were protests in Beirut while we visited and a lot of young people on the street. Traffic jams in the late evening and animals on the sidewalk. I hope these photos paint a picture for you on how Beirut and the Lebanon is, at least the bit which I have seen. Yours, Pollybert
