Gettin to Cairo

I arrive by bus to Cairo from Sharm. Calm to chaos!
The 5 hour bus trip speeding across Egypt, passing places of dark industry and darker imagination. Oil refineries spewing out flames and smoke, the Earth herself bleeding into her air like a speared fish, it's beauty wiped from existence for ever.
luckily I'm sitting next to a gentleman that helps me through all baggage checks and rest stops.
The on bus refreshments flow, served by a constantly smiling steward, the 5 hours pass much faster then I thought and BAM am in Cairo!
I got the bus downtown and hope in a taxi to hotel, the traffic is crazy. The pedestrians and cars mingle seamlessly on the road, the city positively buzzes with life.
