Driving lessons


Egyptian driving and road habits in general are quite charming. This is exactly what it appears to be: a man taking his grandmother (who could barely walk) for a walk in the MIDDLE of a divided highway (totally normal by the way). Our driver swerved past at 100Km/hr like everyone else and they made it safely across our lane. Lots more to tell on this front...wrong way on a divided highway, directions while zipping along the highway, etc etc...too much of a list to go into here, but looking forward to sharing all later. It is really quite fun and hospitable despite the initial impression of craziness!
