In Egypt from June 11, 2003 to June 12, 2005, in Syria for two months, then in DC for grad school. Wednesday, September 24, 2003. The ride to Abu Sir is always more congenial, since it's a small town, and everyone in the bus gets on and off in the same place. Since most of the people know each other, there's always a big fuss over paying, as everyone insists on paying everyone else's fare. And "Where you go? Posted by Khalid @ 6:00 PM.
