When you spend so much time in a car you need to find ways of amusing yourself...
I have.
One of my favorite things to do while driving is spot the garbage trucks. I do not know what this sick obsession is.. it is extremely weird.. even according to my own standards.
I marvel at the ability of the truck owners to pack them so high with garbage. I am amazed....
Most of the time I really cannot believe or understand it. These trucks defy the laws of gravity.. no they defy all laws of physics.
The garbage was piled almost 3 times as high as the truck! It was tied down with one rope.
A million little pieces, tied with little pieces of string, and nothing was blowing away!
I am wondering how they got it up so high before they actually tied it down...
Once again they got it up so high.. I love how you can see the width and and height in this pic. I swear packing garbage is an art that Egyptians have mastered.
Driving off into the sunset.. (Actually, it was a sunrise.. but sunsets are so much more romantic)

I sense some sarcasim there?

Wot i cudnt understand is that even when the trucks came,there would always be garbage remainin on the streets! the saddest sight is that of the lil' kids bent over from weight of garbage bags
have you ever been to that place called "zabaleen"? I think it is in Mokattam. It is where all the garbage in Egypt goes to be sorted. It is heart breaking and inspiring at the same time. If you have not been there you should definitely go.. I think it might have changed my perspective on a lot of things...
