I really like this shot with a zippy scooter and an old Mercedes; we can see the license plate > different look than over here! Just hope the scooter doesn't get crunched!
Some cars, I just don't know how they're still running. You see the most amazing cars, barely holding together--maybe it's the love. People here really love their cars even if they can't always take very good care of them.
Everybody's looking for something. Mary Ann is looking for the real Beirut, whatever that means. These are the photos she takes along the way.
You can browse around the archives here or check out her other blogs. There's one from a few years ago, back when she blogged about art. And then there's another from '09 when she lived in St. Louis (USA).
And the Mercedes is a classic too... they manage to keep old cars running forever it seems, in some places, like Cuba, and Lebanon or Syria...
