After a month's stay in Cairo, I never thought I would say how nice to come home to the order and tranquility of Midtown New York City traffic during rush hour!

In Egypt, traffic rules, if there are any, are not obeyed, 2 lanes will have 3 cars abreast without warning, instead of traffic signals, they all use their horns, if a car doesn't fit within a parking spot, they will simply get out of the car enlist help and move the parked car to make room. it was nothing like anything else I've ever experienced!
