Welcome to Lebanon, the land of Cedars, today is the 15th of October and we had one of our first rains, suddenly heavy showers started, and as usual almost all roads were blocked because of the Lebanese style floods.

For Lebanese this is a very normal and regular issue to be held for hours in heavy traffic jam and congestion, because no one really cares about preparing our what so called highways for the winter season, and this is happening since we got our independence in 1943.

Basically all our neighboring countries envy us as we are known by the land of sun and water, but unfortunately all the good stuff we are receiving from the skies are not really being taken good care of instead we let it go for free.

I guess mentioning this will not make any difference for the guys responsible about all this, but I wanted to share the below pictures.
