« Some call it recyclingHospital visit in Sharm el Sheikh »

The other day in Hadabah

Air polluting factory, Hadabah, Sharm el Sheikh, Sinai, Egypt
Discarded wooden fruit boxes, Hadabah, Sharm el Sheikh, Sinai, Egypt
Closed environmental company, Hadabah, Sharm el Sheikh, Sinai, Egypt
Closed environmental company, Hadabah, Sharm el Sheikh, Sinai, Egypt
Olympic village, Hadabah, Sharm el Sheikh, Sinai, Egypt
No honking sign, Hadabah, Sharm el Sheikh, Sinai, Egypt

Hadabah is the name of the part of Sharm el Sheikh we live in.
You could call it the “city center".
Not that Sharm is a real city.

Anyway:

1. Air polluting factory of sorts
2. Discarded fruit / vegetables boxes
3. & 4. Abandoned(?) “Sinai environmental Services” (does that look a bit ironic?)
5. Olympic village (well,….not much of a village yet)
6. No honking sign - which of course everyone ignores

Das sind ja interessante Impressionen - der unschönen Art. Klar, Industrie muss irgendwo sein, aber Abfallhalden, ne ... (obwohl Köln ja auch nicht die sauberste Stadt ist).

LOL! great shots!
They honk here because they think there are no other people around...they don't care if somebody's been working late and want to sleep in the morning...etc.
They don't THINK here!

The fruit/veggie boxes look very very interesting. I'd love to bring them hope and fix them up and use as decorations. Here in US we would pay huge amounts to get those. Too sad!

I have never seen a no honking sign before! Very different than your last area.
