Horse Riding runs deep in Eqyptian's blood

Posted by Picasa
Driving in Eqypt is an experience of a life time. Our bus was riding right on top of the tram track in the middle of an extremely crowded market street. Suddenly a tram appeared out of nowhere in the opposite direction. The bus driver had to negotiate a way for the mamoth bus, but not after exhanging strings of horns and arabic instructions with the street hawkers who eventually made way for the bus. Funny enough, after our bus passed the tram, the street hawkers moved their stalls back to the same spot like nothing ever happen before.
No one follows traffic rules in Cairo. Our bus just parked midway in the road for one of the tour members who need to buy a few items from a nearby store. I guess they drive cars like they ride horses
