phone pictures around town



This is the bridge closest to the center of downtown, and is a popular destination for promenading, particularly for couples wishing some intimate conversation somewhere respectable and free.

Used book market.

On her last day in Cairo, Rachel wanted to revisit Talaat Harb square, with some good examples of 19th century architecture.

This sign says "closed for prayer" and I liked how nicely decorated it was. On a scarf shop.

Sidewalk magazine seller. Arabic, English, European languages represented.

A similar sidewalk seller, this time newspapers. Note the variety.

Lunch along the Nile.

Oh what a global world we live in. This sushi establishment has branches only in Cairo and Sao Paulo.

Self-portrait with cookies.
