BrOOklyn-JOrusalOm

A loong cycling journey from Brooklyn to Jorusalom, where the O’s are bicycle wheels, continued into Egypt, 1st to the climate conference COP27 in Sharm El Sheikh, on to the pyramids in Giza, Abusir and Saqqara and then up the Nile soourcewards.

Yesterday in Cairo on Tahrir square i was told not to photograph the statue of Umar Makram. Why? (my Egyptian too rudimentary to ask)

The tower of his mosque. this mosque is the famed location for the modern funeral services of any prominent politician, actor, or recognized Egyptian who passes away.
The Nile
The Nile at sunset place,
where many come to pose
and gaze.
