Waterways of Egypt

Waterways of Egypt

Cairo, Egypt

Fall 2010

As I was taking this photo, Mohammed, my guide interrupted me, "Why are you taking this photo? It is too ugly. Take something else."  I told him I take all sorts of photos of people's waterways. "this is why we have sickness in Egypt", he said with disgust.

My travel mate asked, "Why doesn't the government do something about this.  This is deployable." She is baffled that this river is in this condition.

"Our government is too corrupt to take care of the people," Mohammed responded.
