Cedars

Beirut - Modern angle Rania told me off for shooting too many pictures of donkeys and rubble. Beirut IS modern, mkay?	Beirut - Modern Angle + Palmtrees But it does do date palms, too...	Ads.. Markus, I TOLD you to tag along, see what you're missing out on man...
Off ramp to Byblos - A religious, quiet town north of Beirut	We're not going to Tripoli, right guys? Apparently it's not a great idea to poodle around Tripoli, some kind of Shia vs Sunni deal going down. But we're not going there, right..	What every gas station needs more of: BOOZE!
OK, so the general direction is North, good...	Um we're NOT going to Tripoli, right?	Guys, seriously, that IS Tripoli, can we PLEASE get off this road?
	This country is gorgeous	Intersesting building regulations though.
		This is why I like the politics here, it's not showbiz for the ugly like the UK
		Woo hoo, we're here! Check out the barbed wire in the background, not sure exactly what it's protecting, the trees?
		Go Cedars! The Lebanese seem to largely celebrate their national tree by cutting them down and selling them to foreigners (Moses/Ark of the Covenant, Hiram Abiff + that Temple and finally random Finnish guys on the prowl for icons of Mary and telephones made of wood)
